The story behind the headline...

Since the end of the transition period on 31 December 2020, there have been numerous reports of businesses struggling to deliver goods and even halting deliveries to customers in Northern Ireland. Why is Northern Ireland in this difficult position despite remaining a part of the UK following Brexit? Laura Hodgson, Knowledge Counsel, discusses the newly in force Northern Ireland Protocol, agreed as part of the Withdrawal Agreement in 2019, and the VAT and custom duty charges on goods entering Northern Ireland from other parts of the UK.

The story behind the headline...

Throughout January, papers and media websites were full of stories about people being asked to pay large and unexpected tax and custom duties charges on the arrival of goods from the EU. So, what is this so-called Brexit tax and why is it being charged when the UK and EU have agreed a zero tariff Brexit deal?

In this webinar Senior Counsel Elissavet Grout and Knowledge Counsel Kulsoom Hadi discuss social security and the issues that UK employers with staff working in the EU, EEA or Switzerland need to think about.

Major changes to the tax rules for off-payroll workers in the private sector will come into force next April after a year's deferral due to the Covid-19 pandemic. From that date, businesses engaging workers through intermediary companies or agencies will have increased responsibility for checking the status of these workers and, where required, operating PAYE in relation to payments to them.

This webinar focuses on how to prepare for the major changes coming when the Brexit transition period expires at the end of the year, featuring leading international trade commentator Dmitry Grozoubinski.
