I know you are not importing or
exporting as such but things are different now with Brexit and there
might be all kinds of rules where
you need extra documentation otherwise what may be a personal or
business tool to you could
look like something you are importing or exporting.
Related question - are you allowed to do anything with the tools when
you get there? This one's on my radar at the moment... I need an
engineer to do some work on a router that's ours that lives in an EU
data centre. Nothing that's chargable to a customer or in any other way
"transacting business" in the EU, but they would technically be
"working" in the DC for a few hours.
I'm assuming I can't just pop a UK engineer on the Eurostar any more and
I'm going to have to pay remote hands or otherwise sub-contract, but if
anyone knows different, or a way to get a suitable do-your-job-for-a-day
visa, that would be really useful. UK-only company which owns the router
asset and pays the colo bill, no EU subsidiary to play with.
Cheers,
Tim.
