The Chamber is pleased to invite you to join us and experts from Harper Macleod on 5 February 2021 from 13:00 to discuss some of the new rules that have come as a result of the Brexit process and what your business can do to stay compliant and reduce unnecessary costs.
The webinar is entitled Highlights of the EU-UK Trade and Cooperation Agreement: Brexit implications for Employment Law and Importing & Exporting and is designed to help you understand some of the new requirements arising from the Brexit process.
For those of you who are importing or exporting, the information on Rules of Origin will be key to ensuring that you are benefitting from tariff free trade. Understanding the new requirements around product labelling is also important to ensure that your products are able to be sold in both UK and EU markets, and these also have the potential to impact those who are only selling to domestic UK markets.
