As we are sure you are aware, the Brexit withdrawal agreement has been passed by Parliament and Britain officially left the EU on the 31st January 2020. We are now in a transition period until 31st December 2020.

As part of the transition arrangements, the UK will remain in the single market and the customs union during this time. Both during and after the transition period, London East Transport and our carrier partners are fully committed to supporting customers with their cross-border trade.
