The EU and the UK have agreed to leave the UK, also known as Brexit, from the EU. As a result of ongoing Brexit negotiations, an agreement was reached on duty-free trade, with no restrictions on the sale of British goods to the EU, fisheries, energy, transport, justice and security.
Regarding the agreement, British Prime Minister Boris Johnson said “we are finally free”, while German Chancellor Angela Merkel used the phrase “a historic agreement”.
LIKE THE OLD WAY
The relationship between the UK and the EU will continue “similar to the old one” from January 2021. There will be no economic breakdown. This broad trade agreement, including the Customs Union, mutually provides for “conditions of fair competition”.
Britain will present the deal to parliament, while all 27 EU member states must ratify it. Under the agreement, British products will be able to reach the EU without seeking additional EU quality or conditions. On the other hand, the EU will be able to provide goods and services to the United Kingdom under equal conditions of competition.
Therefore, Britain will act as if it were a member of the EU, with common environmental, social and subsidized standards.
An agreement was also reached on EU fishermen’s access to British waters. EU conditions will prevail to bring meat and dairy products to the EU.
SPECIAL REPORT FOR PETS
Brexit will also have some side effects. The UK did not apply visas to EU citizens anyway, but some products or animals will have additional requirements. For example, the “blue” passport for pets in the UK will expire.
Instead of the blue passport, which belongs to the EU and prepared for pets such as dogs and cats, a medical report from the British health system, rabies vaccination, microchip and a report dated up to 10 days will be required. Otherwise cats and dogs purchased in the UK will not be allowed to enter the EU.
