Dear Reader,

Customs formalities cover global supply chains from the country of exportation to the country of importation. The legal rules to be addressed on the way are extensive (tariff, non-tariff, safety, etc.). They vary across countries and regions, change constantly, and often are inaccessible because of the language barrier and/ or unavailability online. 

Businesses aim to arrange customs formalities in the most cost-effective way, taking into account tariff preferences, the variety of customs procedures, and the simplifications. Therefore, the task to ensure compliant and cost-effective customs formalities is a complex one and any customs-related topic is in the scope of the journal. 

At the core of the Customs Compliance & Risk Management Journal for Practitioners in Europe are these keywords: up-to-date customs knowledge, compliance, harmonisation and simplification of the international and national rules (the simpler the rules, the easier to trade and to manage compliance and risks).

The first bi-monthly issue was released at the end of March 2020. Stakeholders - business, customs, academia, and others - from all over the world are invited to read the journal and to contribute articles.

Dear Readers, 

Time flies. This especially holds true for the ongoing COVID-19 crisis situation. The European Union currently seems to slightly have overcome the worst as regards the number of cases. What is expected to follow now are the short- to medium-term impacts on the economy. Today, you already can read the second edition of this new Journal Customs Compliance & Risk Management, which started just with the outbreak of the pandemic in Europe. It aims to provide practitioners in foreign trade with valuable information to manage their everyday business. In this edition, you will find a bunch of articles on various relevant topics. A hot one is the still unclear future relationship between the United Kingdom and the European Union. Dr David Savage illuminates in his article also the history of the Irish frontier situation. Different views of the EU and the UK with regard to the interpretation of the Ireland/ Northern Ireland Protocol of the withdrawal agreement may have the potential to become a real stopper in the ongoing negotiations. 

In his article ‘Problematic areas of the application of customs duties in the international trade between the EU and Republic of India: tax disputes arising in the EU and its Member States (Lithuania)’ Dr Gediminas Valantiejus follows an interesting approach to evaluate regulatory problems faced by economic operators in trade between the EU and India by analysing ECJ and Lithuanian case law on trade disputes since 2006. 

Further topics are inter alia tariff classification, the procedure 42 in Lithuania, customs supervision and IPR, customs infringements and sanctions, and the Incoterms© 2020 edition.

Preferential trade arrangements of the EU: a non-systematic glance at the current non-uniformity
2020-05-26

Taking a look back over the last couple of years – more precisely 15, when the WTO’s Doha Round was expected to end in 2005 – economic operators were facing the results of a multilateral approach to facilitate global trade which clearly lagged behind its actual intentions. As regards preferential trade, the major challenge for economic operators in these times seemed to have been the confrontation with the strengthening of individual national proceedings resulting in more and more bilateral and partially plurilateral trade agreements. The spaghetti bowl was no longer a valued Italian ‘secondo piatto’ but a feared opaque and impenetrable mass of regulations of many different free trade agreements. As we know, this situation has not changed much since then – so companies simply got used to the fact that the exploitation of potential preferential benefits is bound to the prior analysis of the (preferential) trade relations of their destination market countries – bilaterally but also among each other. They cannot count on the advantages of a multilateral agreement with lowered or abolished tariff rates and harmonised rules.

Prekių tarifinis klasifikavimas ir muitinės laboratorijos tyrimai. Žvilgsnis į Lietuvos praktiką
2020-05-26

Vieni sudėtingiausių ginčų muitinės reguliavimo srityje kyla dėl muitinės laboratorijos teikiamos prekių tarifinio klasifikavimo išvados. Jeigu mokestinis ginčas nagrinėjamas teisme, šis turi patikrinti Muitinės laboratorijos tyrimų atitikimą formaliems reikalavimams ir įvertinti ištyrimo visapusiškumą, tyrimo duomenų atitikimą išvadai. Pastaroji sąlyga itin svarbi. Taigi perkėlus ginčą dėl prekės klasifikavimo į teismą, šis turi įvertinti Muitinės laboratorijos tyrimus ir dokumentus vadovaujantis tomis pačiomis taisyklėmis, kaip ir kitus įrodymus byloje.

Brexit ir Šiaurės Airija
2020-05-25

Šiomis nepaprastomis dienomis, kai viruso COVID-19 atsiradimas iš esmės uždarė didelę pasaulio ekonomikos dalį, Brexit, 2019 m. žinių cikle vyravusi tema, susilpnėjo, tačiau vis dar yra “po radaru”. Šiame straipsnyje pasakojama istorija apie JK (Jungtinė Karalystė) pasitraukimą iš ES. Be to, straipsnis paaiškina, kodėl Šiaurės Airijos klausimas yra tokia jautri tema Brexit kontekste ir kodėl tai išlieka didžiausia kliūtimi JK ir ES laisvosios prekybos sutarties derybose.

ECJ ruling on the tariff classification of heat patches to treat muscle injuries and soreness
2020-05-24

From a tariff classification point of view, the scope of the term ‘medical products’ has been and continues to be controversial in some instances. For businesses, classification of goods that may or may not have medical application outside of Harmonised System Chapter 30 can result in their goods attracting a significant customs duty rate. This article summarises the case where heat patches, designed to treat muscle injuries and soreness, were originally classified by Commission Implementing Regulation 2016/1140 under heading 3824, but following an appeal to the ECJ, these items were found to be a products of heading 3005.

Problematic areas of the application of customs duties in the international trade between the EU and Republic of India: tax disputes arising in the EU and its Member States (Lithuania)
2020-05-24

The article seeks to answer the question what are the specific practical regulatory problems currently facing the international trade operators engaged in international trade business between the EU Member States and the Republic of India and how they can be reflected/solved in the possible free trade agreement between them. Problematic areas of the application of customs duties are being identified on the basis of a case study of tax disputes regarding imports of goods from India on EU level (in the Court of Justice of the EU and national level of the EU Member States (using the Republic of Lithuania as the main example)).

Muitinės priežiūros priemonės – operatyvi intelektinės nuosavybės teisių apsauga
2020-04-30

Kai į laisvą apyvartą patenka prekės, kuriomis yra pažeidžiamos intelektinės nuosavybės teisės, nukenčia ne vienas subjektas. Visų pirma, didžiausia ir akivaizdžiausia žala daroma pačiam teisių savininkui ar turėtojui, kadangi rinkoje pasirodę padirbiniai daro neigiamą įtaką pardavimams, kainai, prekės pozicijai rinkoje. Kitoje sandorio pusėje esantis pirkėjas taip pat nelaimi – įsigyta prekė neatitinka kokybės ar net saugumo standartų, dažniausiai nėra galimybės pasinaudoti vartotojų apsauga. Be kita ko, intelektinės nuosavybės teisės pažeidimai iškreipia konkurenciją - sąžiningus, teisės besilaikančius gamintojus ir prekybininkus pastato į nelygiavertę poziciją. Galiausiai, klastočių ir piratinių prekių rinka žalinga ir nesurenkamų mokesčių aspektu.

Kas žinotina apie EORI kodą ir nacionalinius skirtumus ES šalyse
2020-05-01

Nors tokia verslo forma, kaip gamybos perkėlimas į kitą šalį pagal užsakomųjų paslaugų sutartį jau laikoma gana įprasta verslo forma, trečiųjų šalių įmonės vis dar patiria iššūkių tiekiant žaliavas į jų perdirbimo vietas. Vienas iš jų – EORI kodo gavimas, kai įmonė faktiškai pati veiklos nevykdo ES valstybėse narėse, tačiau mato ekonominę naudą importuodama žaliavas į ES savo vardu.
