Operators of commercial vehicle fleets are now able to research the new changes made to the customs and security regulations, thanks to a report from the Freight Transport Association (FTA).
The guide, entitled The Customs and Security Environment for UK International Traders (the Guide), offers advice regarding new EU initiatives but also includes help on aspects of trade with the US.
Christopher Snelling, the FTA's head of global supply chain policy, said: "The guide will explain how the customs and security system works and how policy is made.
"Supply chain managers will gain a deeper understanding of how international organisations set standards and how these standards will affect them on a practical level.
Perhaps more importantly, Mr Snelling added, the guide could save traders the possibility of being fined or delayed due to the lack of understanding regarding the new rules.
The guide is available for FTA members from the organisation's website and non-members can also contact the FTA for the guide.
