5th Advanced Forum on

Global Customs Compliance

Tuesday, May 18 to Wednesday, May 19, 2010

C5’s Advanced Forum on Global Customs Compliance is the must-attend event customs and trade compliance officers of multinational companies rely on. As your accountability is expanding beyond national requirements, importing or exporting goods has become a challenging and complicated task. A single error when dealing with thousands of transactions will lead to delays at borders and late delivery, significant fines and other cost-related issues.

With a global and likely slow economic recovery underway, you must remain on top of the latest and fast-changing requirements, policies and regulations in customs matters. Implementing customs compliance best practices to demonstrate that you operate within a secure supply chain and that your internal customs controls and procedures are efficient are more than ever imperative.

C5’s 5th Advanced Forum on Global Customs Compliance is the only event that will provide you with best practices and hands-on recommendations and solutions on how to cost-effectively implement global customs compliance systems. Don’t miss the opportunity to keep abreast of latest developments affecting your industry, hear from the industry experts, representatives of Customs Authorities, international and European customs officials and network with your colleagues.

Key Topics include:

  • Implementing Provisions of the Modernised Customs Code (IPMCC) and effects on the customs valuation
  • Mutual recognition of the EU AEO and the U.S. C-TPAT: Where do we stand?
  • Effective customs broker management, meeting AEO and simplifying processes
  • Preparing for customs in a paperless environment
