Firms urged to access EU trading toolkit

Derby City Council is urging firms involved in importing and exporting to take advantage of a new toolkit designed to help them negotiate changes to EU trading.

The Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) has produced the toolkit specifically for small and medium-sized enterprises.

It aims to help them identify the decisions and actions they need to make to continue trading with the EU and the European Free Trade Association (EFTA).

It comes after BEIS set up new helplines to assist UK businesses with enquiries related to the end of the transition period.

The document outlines the support, helplines and resources that may be useful for SMEs and signposts to more detailed guidance on government websites.
