A new customs agreement between the EU and New Zealand officially entered into force on 1 May. The agreement will enable both partners to work together to prevent, investigate and combat breaches of customs rules.

It paves the way for more cooperation on customs security and a safer, trade-friendly environment for businesses and consumers alike. Total trade between the EU and New Zealand in goods amounted to €8.4 billion in 2017 and trade in commercial services amounted to a further €4.4bn in 2016. The entry into force of the agreement this week follows its signature in July 2017.

More information is available on the DG TAXUD website and the full text of the new agreement is available here.
