Potential rate of EU tariffs on dairy exports 2015 Statistic

This statistic shows the ad valorem rate of EU tariffs on dairy exports to the European Union (EU) from the United Kingdom (UK), based on trade data from 2015. Without a free-trade deal following Brexit, trade of milk and cream with a fat content between three and six percent could be charged an extra 74 percent in EU tariffs, followed by 68 percent for unripened or uncured cheese.

Supplementary notes

* Without the development of a free trade deal between the United Kingdom (UK) and the European Union (EU) following Brexit, the UK would be subject to the EU's Common Customs Tariff under World Trade Organization (WTO) rules. EU tariffs are uneven and depend on the type of product; values are therefore estimates based on 2015 trade data and independent calculations.
