The European Union (EU) continues to be very active in promulgating legislation to
support its drive to create a single customs union for its 27 member states. The latest in a long line of supply chain security legislation includes not only the introduction
of the Import Control System (ICS), but also the Implementing Provisions of the Modernized Customs Code that are still awaited.
Governments around the world are updating customs codes, modernising and
introducing technology processes, and changing classifi cations - all in the name of streamlining revenue collection and enforcing supply chain security. Importers and
exporters that fail to master customs and international trade compliance requirements or take on board all the changes can violate strict provisions and leave their company
exposed to costly monetary penalties and border delays. More importantly, importers
can unknowingly miss out on the cost and duty saving opportunities offered by the
same regulations.
With the desire to ensure the security of the supply chain, customs enforcement
and audits have become even more heavy-handed and penalties continue to rise. Developing an effective customs strategy and implementing compliance programmes
for your import and export operations can be daunting as the need to be up-to-date
on the latest regulatory changes and guidelines is continuous.
C5’s 3rd Annual Boot Camp on Customs Compliance is designed as an in-depth,
practical course on the nuts and bolts of customs compliance. Our expert faculty will walk you through the ins and outs of latest developments, key requirements,
cost and duty saving opportunities and best compliance practices. This course will allow for ample Q&A, hands-on exercises and case studies, and will provide you
