now in force.&nbsp; The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.uk\/government\/publications\/australia-and-new-zealand-trade-bill-explainer\/australia-and-new-zealand-trade-bill-explainer-web-version\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">international trade agreement<\/a> has been set up between the UK and Australia &amp; New Zealand.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:31px\"

businesses?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:31px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The trade agreement eliminates most tariffs on UK goods exported to Australia and New Zealand.&nbsp; And vice versa, import tariffs on most goods imported from Australia and New Zealand in to the UK are now removed.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:31px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Which sectors will benefit from the trade deal with Australia &amp; New Zealand?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:31px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>If your business imports goods from Australia and New Zealand you will now benefit from zero tariffs upon UK import for most commodities.&nbsp; Goods such as engineering components, make-up, honey, clothing, fruits and surfboards all qualify for the trade agreement preferences when importing from Australia and New Zealand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>UK manufacturers may now see an increase in enquiries for exports of their products from the UK to Australia or New Zealand, as companies Down Under make use of the reciprocal agreement of the removal of trade tariffs.&nbsp; Goods such as vehicles, foodstuffs, engineering equipment, excavators, incinerators and fashion typically exported from the UK will qualify for the preferential tariffs when shipped to Australia and New Zealand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:31px\" aria-hidden=\"true\"
