‘There’s no port lying idle’: Brexit tumult is radically reshaping trade on the island of Ireland
time2022-08-10 view

Amid acute political uncertainty and the upheaval of Brexit, the movement of goods on the island of Ireland has been transforming and seeing a significant boost. Since the U.K. formally exited the EU in January 2020, firms have shifted their posture, rethinking the roads they take and the ports they use.

 

This has been driven by the Northern Ireland Protocol, an arrangement that allows the U.K. province to remain in the EU’s single market but requires checks on goods arriving from the rest of the country (England, Scotland and Wales). The EU’s single market seeks to guarantee the free movement of goods, capital, services, and labor within the bloc.
