Em 1 de janeiro de 2021, o Reino Unido deixou de ser Estado-Membro da União Europeia. No entanto, no domínio da justiça civil, os processos e procedimentos pendentes que tiverem tido início antes do final do período de transição continuarão a ser regidos pelo direito da UE. Até ao final de 2024, o Reino Unido pode continuar a ser selecionado em formulários (dinâmicos) em linha, para efeitos desses procedimentos e processos. Os formulários de documentos públicos constituem uma exceção a esta regra, pelo que nesses formulários o Reino Unido não poderá ser selecionado.
