On Friday June 12th 2020, it was confirmed that the UK Government will not be seeking an extension to the EU exit Transition Period.
Consequently new border controls and procedures have been confirmed for 2021.
The announcement comes after yesterday morning’s meeting of the Withdrawal Agreement Joint Committee – the last formal moment to agree an extension to the Transition Period – at which the UK Government confirmed the long-standing position that no such extension would be sought.
