International Trade: UK EUR1 Declarations Update

Here at the Lincolnshire Chamber of Commerce we help local businesses with their international trade through export documentation services. After the UK left the EU on 1st January 2021, changes have come into force on how these documents need to be filled in, with some coming into force now.

Whatever you need to know about trading overseas, your first port of call should be our International Trade team. Find out more by clicking here.
