No TARIC update was published for the European Union today, and no previously loaded measures came into force. This marks a quiet start to the week following a period of significant activity that included major updates to fruit tariffs and new controls on foodstuffs.

What to watch

After a week that saw the activation of hundreds of seasonal fruit tariffs, a massive update to foodstuff controls, and new regulatory scrutiny on Chinese glass microspheres, attention now turns to how these files will develop. The focus for the coming days will be on any further trade defence signals or the loading of the next major set of scheduled agricultural tariff adjustments.
