The UK and EU have agreed a <strong>draft deal<\/strong> on removing post-Brexit checks from food and agriculture exports, ahead of a UK-EU summit later this month, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/news\/articles\/cmp3grwre9xdo\">BBC<\/a> reported.<\/p>\n<p>The BBC understands a <strong>200-page<\/strong> draft &#8220;SPS&#8221; (sanitary and phytosanitary) text has been circulated to EU nations for a Wednesday meeting in Brussels. Similar drafts cover emissions trading and a youth travel and work scheme, plus a 15-page joint statement for leaders.<\/p>\n<p>The government claims the food deal alone could eventually deliver <strong>\u00a35.1bn<\/strong> in annual economic benefits. Fresh sausages, burgers, shellfish from domestic waters and seed potatoes could resume EU exports. It should remove the need for <strong>\u00a3200 Export Health Certificates<\/strong> and <strong>\u00a325 Phytosanitary certificates<\/strong>, cut inspector and port fees, and bring back passports for British pets entering the EU.<\/p>\n<p>In return, the UK is expected to commit to &#8220;dynamic alignment&#8221; with EU plant, animal and food trade standards. Bio&amp;Me&#8217;s Jon Walsh told BBC 5 Live his firm stopped exporting yoghurt because a vet inspection cost <strong>\u00a3140 per pallet<\/strong>. Tory leader Kemi Badenoch called dynamic alignment a red line; Reform UK&#8217;s Richard Tice said returning to EU alignment would &#8220;crush Britain&#8217;s competitiveness.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>A food deal would also radically reduce the post-Brexit Irish Sea border paperwork for Northern Ireland. Drafts go to EU ambassadors (Coreper) on Wednesday.<\/p>\n<p><em>Featured image: AI-generated editorial illustration by Bugle Blast.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Sources:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/news\/articles\/cmp3grwre9xdo\">BBC News<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a35.1bn a year claimed, pet passports back, and sausages may cross the Channel again<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":848,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-849","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/bugleblast.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/bb-ukeu-food-deal-1103.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/bugleblast.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/849","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/bugleblast.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/bugleblast.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bugleblast.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bugleblast.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=849"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/bugleblast.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/849\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bugleblast.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/848"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/bugleblast.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=849"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bugleblast.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=849"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bugleblast.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=849"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
