Question to the Department for International Trade:
To ask the Secretary of State for International Trade, what the timeframe is for the free trade agreement with Albania to come into force.
The United Kingdom-Albania trade deal was signed in Tirana on 5th February 2021 and formally laid in Parliament on 19th February 2021. It is expected to enter into force in early May, following the completion of both British and Albanian domestic processes.
We have published the text of the agreement and guidance for British business at: gov.uk/government/collections/uk-albania-partnership-trade-and-cooperation-agreement.
