Customs for Non-Customs Professionals

Richmond forums provide opportunities to connect and engage with your industry community.

The Richmond Logistics & Supply Chain Forum will host 120 senior logistics and supply chain decision-makers and 50 suppliers of supply chain products and solutions.

The aim of the forum is to create community with your peer group, build powerful networks, establish lasting business relationships and provide access to and learning from high profile industry speakers within our CPD accredited conference programme.

Richmond forums allow you to make new and valuable connections with people live and in person. We believe in the power of being present. In a technological era, face-to-face interaction is still the most effective way of forming collaborative business connections. Every conversation is meaningful.

Multimodal is the industry's annual meeting place where cargo owners and shippers attend to find ways to improve their supply chains, make them more sustainable and discover innovative ideas to solve their transport and logistics issues.  Over 300 companies exhibited at Multimodal offering solutions across all modes, together with the latest technological advances, to help you make your supply chains more sustainable, cost effective and more efficient.

In March 2023, the Treasury announced a package of ‘customs measures’, alongside the Spring Budget, to reduce administrative burden for businesses around cross-border trade.

Just over a year on, the government has begun to implement and develop some of these measures following a series of consultations. This includes changes to how special procedures, duty deferment and temporary storage works, while work is ongoing on modernising customs authorisations, simplifying transit procedures and introducing voluntary standards for customs intermediaries.

In this free one-hour webinar on Monday 25 March, customs experts from the Institute of Export & International Trade and Customs4trade, alongside representatives from government and industry, will give an update on the UK’s mission to modernise its borders and give practical tips on how businesses can optimise their customs processes to benefit fully from this.

The webinar will cover:

• What was included in last year’s Spring Budget and has been announced since

• Changes to special procedures, duty deferment and temporary storage

• Progress on the modernisation of customs authorisations and simplification of declaration procedures

• Latest on the introduction of voluntary standards for customs intermediaries

• Technical solutions to support businesses make the most of these changes

You can ask questions in advance when completing the registration form.
