EU CUSTOMS: FUTURE OF CUSTOMS PROPOSALS

One year ago today, the Wise Person’s Group on the Future of Customs published its recommendations on the next steps for the EU Customs Union. In particular, the group’s report advocated making EU customs more coherent and simpler for businesses, more useful in supervising supply chains and more agile dealing with the digital and green transitions. The Customs reform (including the complete revision of the UCC, a communication and an impact assessment) is now on the agenda of the college of Commissioners at the end of April.
