Posted: 26 November 2018 | Eurofins | No comments yet
On 23 June 2016, the decision was made on the European Union referendum for the United Kingdom to withdraw from the European Union.
Known as Brexit, this process will result in the United Kingdom becoming a third-party country to the European Union and will close the UK’s access to the Single Market effective 29 March 2019.
