The UK transition: Guidance for employees, employers and businesses
The UK has left the EU, and the transition period after Brexit comes to an end this year. On 1 January 2021, the UK will regain its political and economic independence and can start new trading relationships with the EU and rest of the world.
Citizens and businesses can check what they need to do, to prepare for the changes and opportunities ahead at www.gov.uk/transition. For businesses this includes preparing for a new approach to trade with our partners in the European Union. For individuals, this may include registering your residency rights. You can download a useful checklist here.
