From 30 April 2024, physical, documentary and identity checks at the border are scheduled for medium-risk animal products, plants and plant products imported to Great Britain from the EU, as well as high-risk food and feed of non-animal origin from the EU – your cargo may be spot checked for inspection in Sevington, Kent.
Make sure you have taken all necessary steps to avoid any disruptions on the day, please see the below links
