Free trade agreements (FTAs) support businesses to trade with particular countries by reducing or removing tariffs and quotas on goods, as well as by promoting investment and economic partnership.
The UK has signed several new deals following Brexit, including the Trade and Cooperation Agreement with the EU, new FTAs with Japan, Australia and New Zealand, and several rollovers of deals it previously had access to as a previous member of the EU. It has also agreed to join the 11-nation Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP).
However, to benefit from FTAs, businesses are required to comply with their various rules and requirements - including obligations around proving the origin of their goods.
