Brexit Deal

[CatmanV2]

It looks like a EU document.

Anyone know how this compares with what Mrs May had lined up? The good news is that future governments might feel empowered to work with the EU to tidy up some of the rough edges of this deal, when the screaming and vitriol and posturing has ended.

Anyway it’ll be good to see the back of this thread. It’s been like watching a car crash in slow motion, yelling in vain at the inevitable.

There’s an annoying lack of clarity about the working in the EU bit. While I understand the rule with regards to applying for a job in the EU will require a visa, how about doing your current job abroad; will I need a work permit for that? Eg. Doing a photoshoot in Italy?

As far as I can tell, it’s only if you want to be based abroad that you would need a permit. Short trips will be fine.

Just Glad I'm set up properly and in the system as a Garagiste once I'm ready to start.

Hope this will be the exception and not the norm.

Apart from anything else, it’s odd that a company with a .uk domain name wouldn’t be able to ship to the, er, UK.

Think it will be the norm until they know what will happen. Just because there is a deal, doesn't mean it will get passed.

It's too late for it to be implemented before 1st January so at best you will see that for a few months.

I had an order from the EU cancelled this week. I suspect it it just in anticipation of initial delays.

Loads of companies use .uk .de .fr etc etc etc for their websites and they're all directed to the home page.
It's a relatively inexpensive way of directing more traffic to your site.

Dutch company that operates a .co.uk domain name presumably to entice UK customers. They probably have some warehousing here too for common items and the rest they ship over on a JustInTime basis from an EU-based warehouse.

The Maserati Classiche project will have another reason not to supply wishbones and subframes to our salt-rotted cars.

Not really. You can register pretty much whatever you want.

Whereas mine from Italy is on its way....

I don’t know if it’s just the time of year but the cost of shipping anything to the EU has risen considerably , a few months ago 6kg would’ve been £15-20 , now it’s £75-100

6kg 50x50x50cm

I don’t doubt it, it is probably individual sellers making different choices.

I would expect so! This was meant to be delivered before Christmas, but given how screwed things are, I have enough wine as it is

I have, allegedly, stone floor tiles coming from France. Ordered in October with an eight week delivery. Your guess is as good as mine if they will turn up .

Just don't start blaming it on the French
