I dont think the EU is going to shake even a little over the border issue..its for u lot to sort out.

let's say I own a petrol garage just over the border. Forget which side of the border it's irrelevant to this. I pay my petrol duty, vat and other taxes to the tax authorities in that country be that republic or U.K. I complete self assessment tax return for my business. If I am subject to compliance review over my return and I am found to be buying supplies over the border at favourable tax rates to me and avoiding tax in the country I am domiciled then the authorities are going to feel my collar and fine me. Is that what happens now between the republic and the UK or have I got that wrong?

No you can buy petrol wherever you want as a customer but businesses have to account for transactions in the country they are domiciled

So what are you talking about in your previous posts? As I mentioned before, for income tax purposes there is no physical border, however, for goods with different tariffs you do need physical borders.

And as far as trade tariffs go all the EU and UK need to do is not impose them between Northern Ireland and the republic the trade is microscopic anyway. Problem solved
