What is the SME Brexit Support Fund?
The government has made £20 million available through the current SME Brexit Support Fund. Provided you meet certain eligibility criteria, HMRC may provide funding towards the costs of training and/or professional advice, to help you with changes to trade rules with the EU.
What you'll be able to use the Grant for
The two grants available can either be used to help you get professional advice so your business can meet its customs, excise, import VAT or safety and security declaration requirements or you can use the grant for training on:
- how to complete customs declarations
- how to manage customs processes and use customs software and systems
- specific import and export related aspects including VAT, excise and rules of origin
