UK Issues List of Duty Suspension Applications

The U.K.’s trade agency this week released a list of products that companies are asking the government to make subject to new import duty suspensions. The list describes more than 180 duty suspension applications that the government has received for a range of products, including parts used for batteries, various metals and agricultural and food products. The U.K. said “the previous government invited stakeholders to apply for new suspensions” from May to July, and it plans to “confirm the outcome of all applications received in due course.”
