The UK’s new Global Tariff replaced the EU’s Common External Tariff on 1 January 2021. The UK Global Tariff (UKGT) now applies to all goods imported into the UK unless:
- the country you’re importing from has a trade agreement with the UK
- an exception applies, such as a relief or tariff suspension
- the goods come from developing countries covered by the Generalised Scheme of Preferences
The Construction Products Association have produced a list of UKGTs that apply to construction products. This list can be downloaded by FIS Members here – Construction Products Trade Tariffs (January 2021)
