The OBR has estimated the difference in level of imports and exports had the UK not withdrawn from the EU. That estimate is available at this link: OBR Economic and fiscal report March 2021. The most recent report is the Economic and fiscal report October 2024. Additional OBR Economic and fiscal reports can be found here.
