The United Kingdom’s HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) on March 4 launched a new online portal for importers and exporters to get Economic Operator Registration and Identification numbers, which will be required to trade with the European Union if the UK leaves the EU with no deal at the end of March. Once the application is submitted, the EORI number might be provided immediately, “but it could take up to 3 working days if HMRC needs to make more checks,” the agency said in updated guidance. The EORI number will be required for businesses “established in the UK” that don’t already have an EORI and that will import or export goods with the EU after 11 p.m. GMT on March 29, when the UK is currently scheduled to leave the EU. An EORI will not be required for trade with Ireland across the Northern Ireland-Ireland border, HMRC said.
