This document summarizes an agreement reached between the UK and EU to establish a transitional period after Brexit. Key points include: - The UK will leave the EU in March 2019 but remain in the single market and customs union until December 2020. - Goods moving between the UK and EU during this period will be treated as intra-EU trade in regards to customs and VAT. - The agreement provides businesses more certainty and time to prepare for changes taking effect after the transitional period ends. However, the deal still requires approval from all EU member states.
