Do You Move Goods To Or From Northern Ireland?

Reminder to all our clients who move goods to or from Northern Ireland

 

You can sign up for the Trader Support Service to get advice on moving goods between GB and NI.

If you sign up your business before 23 November, this will also ensure you’ll be sent an EORI starting with XI.

 

From 1 January 2021 you’ll need an EORI number that starts with XI to:

move goods between Northern Ireland and non-EU countries

make a declaration in Northern Ireland

get a customs decision in Northern Ireland

 

If you miss 23 November deadline…

 

To get an EORI number that starts with XI, you must already have an EORI number that starts with GB. If you do not have one, apply for an EORI number that starts with GB as soon as possible.

If you already have an EORI number that starts with GB and HMRC thinks you need one that starts with XI, they’ll automatically send you one in mid-December 2020.
