The British Chambers of Commerce (BCC) has been engaging extensively with HMRC over recent months to suggest ways to minimise the disruption to international trade in the event of a no deal Brexit. The suggestions were based on feedback
from the 53 Chambers and thousands of members across the Accredited BCC Network. Following this engagement the Government
released a series of announcements to ease the flow of goods in a no-deal scenario. This included the introduction of transitional simplified procedures (TSP) for customs as a means of avoiding prolonged checks at the border and gridlock on the motorways in the event of a no deal. Northamptonshire Chamber of Commerce
chief executive Paul Griffiths said the TSP arrangements were to be welcomed but urged

businesses to be alert to the new requirements. He said: “This is Government planning for
every eventuality, including a no deal scenario. Businesses are being advised that they should be similarly prepared for leaving the EU. “Once businesses are registered for TSP,
they will be able to transport goods from the EU into the UK without having to make a full customs declaration at the border and will be able to postpone paying any import duties. “These simplifications will be available for
an undefined time period, but 12 months’ notice will be given if changes are being made by government.” To stay up to date with the latest Brexit
