The EU-European Union parliament announced that it had officially approved an agreement such as free trade, which was agreed between the EU and the United Kingdom last year and has been tentatively applied since the beginning of the year.


As a result, the ratification procedures of both parties have been virtually completed, but how to continue trade smoothly has become a major issue.

The European Parliament announced on the 28th that it had deliberated and approved the agreement on free trade and other agreements between the EU and Britain, which had left the EU, at the end of last year.



The agreement has been tentatively applied since the beginning of the year to avoid confusion due to tariffs on both trades, and the approval has effectively terminated the ratification procedures of both parties.



EU Chairman Von der Leyen welcomed the approval, saying that "the agreement will be the cornerstone of a strong and close relationship with the United Kingdom."



Due to the need for customs clearance in trade between the EU and the UK, the value of UK exports and imports to the EU recorded the largest drop ever in January.



In addition, some businesses are having difficulty dealing with various procedures involved in customs clearance, and how to continue trade smoothly has become a major issue.
