7 Customs declaring Old Customs CodeNew Customs Code New Customs Code sets up a priority for electronic declaring of the goods. At the same time, there are cases when customs declaring may be made in writing: - when introducing the goods under the customs procedure of customs transit; - in respect of the goods for personal use; - in respect of the means of transport of international conveyance (shipment); - when using transport (shipping), commercial, and (or) other documents as a customs declaration. 6 Customs declaring of the goods is performed in writing and (or) electronic form

8 Automatic registration of the declarations and automatic release of the goods Old Customs Code New Customs Code The customs operations are performed by the customs officials In order to minimize administrative barriers and human factors the draft of the new Customs Code admits performing customs operations automatically by the information system of the customs: -registration of the goods declaration; -release of the goods; -refusal to release of the goods; -customs control in the form of verification of the documents. 7

9 Lodging of the goods declaration without submission of the documents Old Customs Code The goods declaration is submitted to the customs with commercial, transport and customs documents, on the basis of which it was filled out. Taking into consideration the level of development of the customs technologies and information systems of the customs, the new Customs Code excludes submission of the commercial, transport and customs documents to the customs. 8 The new Customs Code is assumed that when the documents, on the basis of which the goods declaration was filled out, are not introduced in consequence, the customs is entitled to enforce payment of customs duties and taxes at the maximum rate based on the maximum value and the most «expensive» Harmonized System code.

10 Decision of the Supreme Eurasian Economic Council of May 29, 2014 № 68 «Guidelines for the development of a «single window» mechanism in the system of regulation of foreign economic activity» Decision of the Supreme Eurasian Economic Council of May 29, 2014 № 68 «Guidelines for the development of a «single window» mechanism in the system of regulation of foreign economic activity» 1. convergence of approaches for the development of national «single window» mechanisms in the Customs Union 2. development of a national «single window» mechanisms 3. mutual recognition of the electronic documents necessary for the external trade 4. organization of information exchange 9

11 Authorized economic operator 1. The new Customs Code has introduced the procedures of granting, suspension and revocation of the AEO status. 2. It is introduced a three-level system for categorizing the AEO, which depends on the customs benefits provided. 3. Taking into account the recommendations of the World Customs Organization, the conditions for granting the AEO status are revised. For example, the Code introduces the criteria (indicators) of economic operator’s activities, financial solvency, and safety requirements. The old customs code contains six criteria, and the new one – thirteen. 4. The new Customs Code extended the categories of the economic operators, which may get the AEO status. For example, customs carriers, customs brokers, customs warehouses may apply to obtain this status. 5. It is extended the list of customs benefits provided to the AEO. The old customs code contains three customs benefits, and in the new one this amount is extended to nine 6. the validity of the AEO status on the entire territory of the Eurasian Economic Union. 7. the possibility of mutual recognition of the AEO status, what determines negotiations with other interested States on mutual recognition. 10

12 Customs transit 11 Approaches to develop of a customs transit systems in the Customs Union: 1. the accession of the States-participants of the Customs Union to international treaties applicable in the EU, such as the Convention on the simplification of formalities in trade in goods, 1987, and the Convention on a common transit procedure, 1987. 2. the establishment of a transit system of the Customs Union similar to a transit system of the EU with the subsequent integration of the two systems. This mechanism should ensure the effectiveness of the customs control while customs transit and a transparent system for collection of customs payments when goods are not delivered, to allows to apply quickly and objectively sanctions to the violators of customs regulations at customs transit.
