Hauliers update
Exporters must provide the right documentation to hauliers - including export declarations and the extra certificates needed for things like plant and animal products - to avoid goods being held up at the border.
Hauliers heading to Kent must get a negative COVID test within 72 hours of crossing and obtain a Kent Access Permit before heading to port. They can get the permit and find out what documents traders should give them by using the Check a HGV is ready service on GOV.UK.
Failure to secure either a test or Kent Access Permit will mean the driver cannot cross the border and will be fined £300.
Kind regards,
