All new customs controls scheduled for 2022 have been postponed. Citing the rising cost of goods and risk of supply chain disruption, the British government announced on April 28th that all new customs controls scheduled for 2022 are postponed until further notice. Specifically, the controls set to be introduced July 1st regarding further health certifications and border control checks will not go into effect. The postponement applies only to yet to be introduced controls, as all new requirements that have already been implemented in 2022 will remain in effect. As of now, the British government is targeting the end of 2023 to introduce the postponed controls.
