The Brexit transition period will end on 31 December 2020. Only time will tell how the “new” United Kingdom and its trading partners will work together after this sweeping change. The UK is Switzerland’s third biggest trading partner, with agreements and treaties in place, and this is to remain so. However, it is not only about trade of goods, customs and VAT but particularly also about people: almost 35,000 Swiss citizens live and work in the UK and 41,000 British citizens in Switzerland. How will things look for them after 1 January 2021?
You are cordially invited to join our PwC Brexit webinar on 1 December 2020. We will navigate you through some of the key areas you should consider – in particular as you have Swiss headquarters with operations in the UK and the EU – and will explore your readiness for Brexit, fast approaching.
We will cover the following key areas.
- Brexit will have a tremendous impact on the supply chain, customs and VAT for any company selling or producing in the UK market. We will provide an update on the current status, which will help you explore last-minute mitigation measures you can take to keep the flow of goods moving across the new border and help you define your ERP system action plan for correctly calculating and reporting VAT in the future.
- Brexit will affect your mobile workforce when they travel between the UK and Switzerland in all aspects around immigration and social security. In order to enable your employees to continue their work pattern, enter the UK and be adequately insured, you need to be completely up to speed with all possible scenarios.
- Brexit readiness checklist for various topics and last-minute measures, e.g. avoiding withholding tax leakages in your group structure due to changes in the availability of EU Directives and bilateral agreements.
Brexit experts from Switzerland and the UK will be online to share their views and insights. Do not miss the opportunity to listen in!
