Ukraine Support - recent updates
Our Ukraine Hub contains updated information and guidance for businesses about the situation in Ukraine. This will continue to be updated as and when new guidance is received.
Further changes have been made to the UK’s sanctions applying to Russia and Belarus. Tariffs on imports of platinum, palladium, tableware and other goods will rise by 35%. Exports of goods including chemicals, plastics, rubber and machinery to Russia and Belarus will be prohibited. Legislation on this will be tabled imminently.
Trade update
The latest Office for National Statistics trade data for March 2022 was published last week. March saw a modest increase in exports to both the EU and the rest of the world, but the trade deficit is rising to its highest levels in 25 years. You can view the British Chambers of Commerce (BCC) press release on the trade figures here.
The Trade (Australia and New Zealand) Bill has been published. This makes changes in procurement rules and is a key step in the ratification of the UK’s free trade agreements with Australia and New Zealand. Here are the BCC comments supporting the forthcoming ratification process.
