Description
Concluded a Trade and Cooperation Agreement (TCA) with the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland (United Kingdom) on the future trade relationship, with implications on breeding and transport of animals. The TCA envisages trade across borders without tariffs or taxes, but barriers to the movement of services and labour between the two trading partners are expected to result in higher costs and a reduced trade volume. Moreover, the European Union recognized UK organic certification for 12 months post-Brexit.
