The Government’s priority is to keep goods moving and avoid delays at the border. The Government will act to ensure that border processes are as smooth as possible without compromising security.
The Government has put in place measures to facilitate trade with the EU and to avoid disruption at ports, including publishing comprehensive guidance on the new arrangements for trade with the EU.
Algae are defined as plants for planting if the intention is for them to be grown on. Since 1 January 2021, algae have been subject to the new requirements which apply to imports of high-priority plants and plant products to GB from the EU, Liechtenstein and Switzerland. This includes the requirement for:
- Goods to be accompanied by a phytosanitary certificate;
- Import pre-notification to be submitted to competent authority by the GB importer;
- Risk-based documentary, identity and physical checks.
Algae have been risk assessed and do not require a physical inspection. Document checks are completed electronically, and the consignment will move directly to the importer’s premises once the checks have been completed.

Both the UK and the EU want to ensure that European manufacturing continues to thrive in an increasingly competitive global market. Many manufactured goods sectors, such as chemicals, aerospace goods, human and veterinary medicines and medical devices, are subject to common rules across the EU. We recognise that adapting to new regulatory requirements takes time, so the Government will provide continuity in goods regulation for a temporary period after exit day.
This does not mean that everything will stay the same, but the approach is intended to ensure that in many cases the regulatory requirements for placing a manufactured good on the UK market will not significantly change from those which currently apply. As a result, most goods that meet EU regulatory requirements will continue to be recognised as valid for sale on the UK market.
This approach will provide stability in the immediate short term for those businesses who place goods on the UK market, as well as for consumers. It is intended only to apply for a time-limited period after October 31. At the same time the Government is establishing domestic frameworks which mean the UK will have the flexibility to set different rules where it would benefit UK businesses and consumers.
