Documentation and Registration Requirements

This briefing note provides rural business owners with information on the documentation which will be required from 1 January 2021 in order for businesses to continue trading.

It covers:

• Documentation required and the standard time before receipt of documents;
• Registration required before undertaking certain trading activities.

Of course, the decision about what actions to take will be unique to every businesses’ needs. This guidance is not intended to make a judgement on the specific activities you should be undertaking, or about the longer-term effects of the UK’s exit from the EU.
