4. DG TAXUD Single Window declaration MS Declare that There is a need to adapt the e-Customs Decision to the evolutions in global trade, in technology, in risk management requirements and techniques, and in customs control methods and to define the roles of stakeholders involved in e-Customs; The presence of specific needs in Member States implies that national Single Windows cannot be identical but require coordination and common specifications in the EU to make interfaces possible and maximise benefits in terms of trade facilitation, security and protection of citizens. Existing and planned EU systems for certificates should be carefully examined for an integration in the EU Single Window environment for customs to achieve a streamlined approach to reduce implementation costs for administration and trade; national Single Windows should be built on legacy systems; The national Single Windows should interact with EU databases and information exchange systems Information should be submitted by operators to the authorities only once; The development in the EU of a Single Window environment for integrated management and control is complex and requires a phased approach.
