Preparing for Brexit
The UK triggered Article 50 of the Treaty of the European Union on 29 March 2017. As set out under that treaty, the UK has two years to negotiate a Withdrawal Agreement and framework for a future relationship with the EU before the point of the UK’s exit from the EU at 11pm GMT on 29th March 2019. Whilst the Government maintains that progress has been significant and they remain confident that a positive deal can be achieved, as the date draws closer there remains a possibility that we may leave the EU without a deal in March 2019 and it is prudent for businesses to prepare for a no-deal scenario.
There are a wide variety of sources of information on this that businesses may wish to familiarise themselves with including a suite of official notices from government. Whilst we do not endorse any particular view we have provided the following links that you may find useful:
