Key points

  • The agreement adjusts trade quotas as a direct consequence of the United Kingdom leaving the European Union.
  • Total volumes for agricultural, fish, and industrial product quotas are maintained to prevent market disruption.
  • Existing trade commitments are split into two separate customs territories: the EU-27 and the UK.
  • The new distribution of quotas is calculated based on trade flows recorded between 2013 and 2015.
