The problem is that at the moment as a member of the single market we don't have to prove that we are complying with EU regulations, once we leave the EU we have to prove compliance every time goods cross borders. Lots of paperwork, customs delays and costs.I would assume that companies that are exporting into the EU at the moment would simply continue to work within the EU regulation framework as they do at the moment, I wouldn't have thought that would have caused a major problem. On the other hand if British standards change then it would be up to EU exporters into the UK to comply with those, If they're making money I'm sure they would keep up with current regs.
Cheers for the reply,so doe's no Country within the EU have to prove their exporters actually work to European standards to export within the single market, Jesus that's frightening.Many Countries outside the EU do export in though so it's not impossible or looking at the amount of Chinese goods and Korean perhaps not that difficult to meet the regulations.The problem is that at the moment as a member of the single market we don't have to prove that we are complying with EU regulations, once we leave the EU we have to prove compliance every time goods cross borders.

No.So no one in the UK exports to anywhere other than the EU?
Some of your research seems a bit off so perhaps as well.
We can have mutual recognition of conformity assessment procedures under an UK-EU agreement. Already under WTO laws both the UK and the EU base their regulations on international standards.The problem is that at the moment as a member of the single market we don't have to prove that we are complying with EU regulations, once we leave the EU we have to prove compliance every time goods cross borders.

I ran a company for 30 years what doe's that prove,and mine made stuff for export as well.Len Rum was a senior manager at a blue chip and I was in export for 40 years.
Your... I wouldn't have thought that would have caused a major problem is so naive as to be pitiable.

Suppliers might have to prove to their customers( by various means) before they supply to them.Cheers for the reply,so doe's no Country within the EU have to prove their exporters actually work to European standards to export within the single market, Jesus that's frightening.Many Countries outside the EU do export in though so it's not impossible or looking at the amount of Chinese goods and Korean perhaps not that difficult to meet the regulations.
everything's going to have to be checked tho, which we're woefully underprepared for apparently.
We can but please be aware the EU will not agree with the UK to MRAs for all goods and recognition of equivalence for all services.We can have mutual recognition of conformity assessment procedures under an UK-EU agreement.

Apart from the Irish border of course.Really excited that we're getting control of our borders back.
Vive le sovereignty.
Errr, yes that was sort of the point I was making :-/Apart from the Irish border of course.
If the UK gets it's way on that one it will become a smugglers paradise!
Like all the borders around Switzerland? or the Sweden/Norway border?Apart from the Irish border of course.

Last time I went through the Swiss border it was manned and I was stopped.Like all the borders around Switzerland? or the Sweden/Norway border?
Yet another soundbite.
Very much depends where and when. It's manned for immigration control right now due to new quotas but they do customs checks at the same time. Only about half the roads though.Last time I went through the Swiss border it was manned and I was stopped.

That's a crafty way of getting membership of the single market without any of the obligations that go with it.
It is of course what the ' free trade' right wingers want.

And they will still be an illegal immigrant who has no right of asylum. You point is?Also anyone who has had the balls to get from Somalia/Afghanistan/Wherever to Calais will find getting to Ireland a piece of piss and they can then walk across an emptly border.
The point being that Brexit was supposed to stop this (or at least make it more difficult).And they will still be an illegal immigrant who has no right of asylum. You point is?
