UK Extends Grant Funding Deadline for Customs Training

The United Kingdom is extending the deadline for companies to apply for funding for customs training (see 2001220051) as the U.K. leaves the European Union, the U.K.’s revenue and customs agency said in a Feb. 10 notice. The grant funding deadline, which was originally set to expire Jan. 31, 2020, was extended one year to Jan. 31, 2021, the notice said. The U.K. said it has awarded the equivalent of about $21 million in grants, with about $10 million still remaining in the program.
