The strategy sets out six transformations that government proposes to implement across the UK border and a series of cross-cutting, multi-year programmes that government will take forward in partnership with stakeholders.

This list of programmes includes: the development of a Single Trade Window, to create a single gateway for all data from traders into government; implementation of an Electronic Travel Authorisation to speed passenger journeys through ports; and a major review of the agencies and checks that occur at the border, to rationalise these wherever possible. Underpinning this will be a new design authority for the border that will bring together all public sector bodies who design and deliver the border across the UK Government and the devolved administrations, with expert insight from industry, to take a coordinated approach to border design going forward.
