Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, what estimate the Department has made of the annual total cost to UK businesses of complying with customs requirements when exporting goods to the EU.

Estimates of the administrative burden of import and export declarations for trade between Great Britain and the European Union are published at the following link: Estimating the customs administrative burden of 2022 declarations - GOV.UK.  

HMRC is committed to reducing trader burden and making customs processes as simple as possible while ensuring effective risk based checks are in place at the border.
