Enforcing judgments across borders
The end of existing arrangements for the reciprocal recognition of judgments between the UK and the EU took effect on 1 January 2021, so what is now involved in enforcing judgments across borders? In the absence of an agreement on civil justice reciprocity between the UK and EU, the process changes significantly.
The Brexit enforcement toolkit is an interactive resource that allows you to see what the process is in 5 key European jurisdictions: France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands and the UK.
Access the toolkit
Our Brexit enforcement toolkit is just a click away, but you'll need to be registered to our website to access and download it.
