Overview

The customs manager’s function is broad, for example:

  • Their activities support the logistics mission by ensuring smooth and undisrupted port and border operations;
  • They inform wider supply chain management considerations, especially where it concerns preferential customs duties and subsequent location and sourcing decisions;
  • They ensure that the company does not fall foul of customs and related trade laws.

How does it all work in practice? Prof. Andrew Grainger has interviewed many companies and shares his findings in this video.

It's often about raising awareness within the organization.

Customs controls and frontier management: a cybernetic approach to analysis of the EU problem
26-08-2024

In the light of present-day security concerns, customs controls are an area of significant importance as a means of national security as well as the economic defence and security of the nation-state … or supranational blocks. Although this is a general issue of complex systems, in this article, the problem of control in EU, specifically indicated in Special Report of the European Court Of Auditors, is addressed. The problem is being ignored for several years already. This unaddressed problem indicates another issue, even more important – the defective control mechanism in EU, which fails to recognize critical issues and fails to initiate the corrective actions by taking responsibility and by claiming the ownership of the problem.

DAP Incoterm and imports
18-07-2024

The Incoterms book addresses in the introduction the situation where the two most extreme cases, EXW and DDP, may not be the best choice. The reason is that the buyer or seller has to fulfil … customs formalities in “foreign” countries. If they can – that’s fine. If not, it’s better to use another term.

CJEU on the fairness of penalties for customs infringements in the EU
03-03-2024

In the European Union, customs penalties and their proportionality fall within the national competence of the Member States. In a recent judgment, the Court of Justice of the EU (CJEU) ruled … that the imposition of an administrative penalty of 50% of the amount of duty underpaid is justified "notwithstanding the good faith of and precautions taken by the operator concerned". What does this mean for EU importers who declare the non-preferential origin of goods on the basis of proofs issued by the authorities of third countries that turn out to be incorrect? We provide an overview of the case and consider what conclusions economic operators could draw from it.
