Understanding UK Global Tariff Changes

HMRC have simplified and liberalised many tariffs on goods imported into the UK. Government amendments are highlighted in the 'change' column in the UK Global Tariff tool.

Liberalised

The tariff has been reduced to zero, making these goods duty-free for import.

Simplified

The tariff has been rounded down or 'banded'. Complex tariffs are now expressed as a single percentage.

Reduced

The tariff has been lowered beyond the simplification measure for additional savings.

Currency Conversion

Tariffs converted at €1 = 0.83687 GBP. Rates ≥£10 rounded to nearest pound, <£10 to nearest 10p.

  • The goods come from countries that are part of the Generalised Scheme of Preferences
  • The country you're importing from has a trade agreement with the UK

Are any goods covered by a tariff-rate quota?
