Agenda

Anthony Buckley

‘What is planned for Europe?’ by Anthony Buckley, Chair of Customs Knowledge Institute and Kevin Shakespeare, Director of Strategic Projects and International Development at the Institute of Export & International Trade. The European Commission is finalising plan for European Customs up to 2030 while completing the implementation of the UCC up to 2025. At the same time, the UK government is introducing some new concepts for customs, which have implications for Europe. What are the central elements?

Enrika Naujokė

‘No declarations for customs? Is it a myth or is it real?’ by Enrika Naujoke, editor of Customs Compliance & Risk Management journal. The customs supervision dream is to receive data directly from the actors of the supply chain. Will the customs declaration be abolished in, let’s say, 10 years? What else is in question?

Kevin Shakespeare

‘What about customs learning?’ by Kevin Shakespeare, Director of Strategic Projects and International Development at the Institute of Export & International Trade (IOE&IT). Following the UK leaving the EU a new market for customs learning has evolved requiring an understanding of new procedures for trade in goods, trade in services and e-commerce. This also comes on top of customs authorities having to manage requirements under the WTO Trade Facilitation agreement and the advance of digital trade. All this opens new opportunities for collaboration between organisations to promote best practice and to facilitate trade.
