Cross-border shipments are governed by two connected sets of requirements: the customs rules that allow goods to cross the border and the transport rules that determine how they can be moved.
This tracker brings the key changes together in one place. It explains what has changed, when it applies, who it affects and what businesses should do next. The newest changes appear first.
Last reviewed: July 2026. We update this page as new requirements are confirmed or existing rules change.

The UK voted to leave the European Union. The result did not immediately alter customs or border arrangements, but it began the process that led to the UK’s formal departure and the introduction of new trading rules.
No action was required on the referendum date itself. The main customs and operational changes followed in 2021.
