Non-customs formalities in EU

Adobe Stock

What are non-customs formalities and, accordingly, non-customs systems?

Non-customs formalities are regulatory requirements that certain goods are subject to at the EU border in policy domains such as health and safety, environment protection, fisheries, agriculture, market surveillance, etc. Accordingly, the systems that store information about the fulfillment of specific non-customs formalities required for the international trade in goods are referred to as non-customs systems.

Why is it particularly important in the current customs context?

It is important, because Regulation (EU) 2022/2399 establishing the EU Single Window Environment for Customs made its way into EU law in December 2022. This Regulation provides a new legal framework to improve information sharing and digital cooperation between customs administrations and other government authorities in charge of enforcing non-customs formalities at the EU border. This will allow economic operators to clear certain customs formalities more easily.

What is the main system interconnecting the customs and non-customs systems?

The EU Customs Single Window Certificates Exchange System (EU CSW-CERTEX) is the centralised system to interconnect the import, export and transit systems of the Member States with Union non-customs systems.

In the context of the new Regulation, Union non-customs systems will be connected to EU CSW-CERTEX to exchange information with the national single window environments for customs. These systems are used on a mandatory or voluntary basis depending on the requirements of EU sectoral legislation for each policy domain, see the figure 'Existing and future Union non-customs systems in the respective sectoral domains' below.

E-customs in the EU
05-03-2023

Electronic customs (‘e-customs’) is a major development for the EU's Customs Union. The project aims to replace paper-format customs procedures with EU-wide electronic procedures to create a more efficient and modern customs environment. Each year the European Commission releases a report on progress in developing electronic systems. The latest report was published in February 2023.

Apžvelkime aktualią Lietuvos vyriausiojo administracinio teismo (LVAT) nutartį, nepalankią importuotojui.

The European Union Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism – the launch in 2023
29-01-2023

In mid-December 2022, negotiators of the Council and the European Parliament reached an agreement of a provisional and conditional nature on the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM). The agreement needs to be confirmed by ambassadors of the EU member states, and by the European Parliament, and adopted by both institutions before it is final. However, according to the agreed timetable, the transition period for its implementation is set to come into force in October 2023. What should companies do?
