Northern Ireland and the Windsor Framework

Northern Ireland (NI) stays within EU rules for goods, so movements from Great Britain (GB) to NI follow separate rules based on the Windsor Framework. Goods are split into a green lane (staying in NI, trusted trader under UKIMS) and a red lane (at risk of entering the EU market). The status is specific, so we confirm it per order.

How it works

• Green lane for goods staying in NI, with trusted trader status (UKIMS).
• Red lane for goods at risk of entering the EU market, with a fuller procedure.
• NI treats goods under EU rules, hence a different mode than ordinary GB import.
• The exact path and documents are confirmed per order. [[DO POTWIERDZENIA]]

This is general information, not legal advice; details depend on the goods and the sender’s status. At OPTIMUS TRANSPORT we set the path before departure. See customs clearance and destinations.
