Not rules that only apply within the UK. Products sold in the EU, indeed have to follow EU rules, but that goes for everybody on the planet, regardless of whether a trade deal is involved.
The EU pre-condition for a trade deal is FISHING. When the Political Declaration says that fishing is to be a separate agreement, as it is with every other country the EU has a trade deal with.
Recent Barnier speech.
