SHIPPING OUTUK’s import control measures come into effect todayNEW customs requirements for agricultural food and plant goods going into the UK from Ireland and the EU began today (January 31). The set of security control measures will not affect the movement of goods between Ireland and Northern Ireland. The first one is that they have to register on the EU’s ‘TRACES’ food safety system, if they haven’t done so already,” said CVO Martin Blake. “The second is they should organise with a GB-based importer or agent, with a GB address, to upload information for them onto the UK’s IPAFF system. All goods irrespective of risk category must be notified with them.”
