KYIV. Sept 1 (Interfax-Ukraine) – The Finance Ministry of Ukraine intends to expand the “one face to the customer” approach to the transactions of moving goods in all customs modes and make some other changes to the operation of the system from February 1, 2018.
According to a posting on the website of the ministry, the draft resolution will be presented to the government next week.
Today the “one face to the customer” approach applies only to import and export transactions, the ministry said.
It is planned to expand the system to regular customs declarations and previous declarations that contain the full amount of data, while the system now applies to a limited number of customs declarations for imports and exports, the ministry said.
According to the release, the innovations will also allow reducing the number of scanned documents, since the necessary information will be received from the previous declarations. In addition, this will shorten the inspection period for goods by regulatory authorities from 24 to 12 working hours and reduce the period for the decision-making for goods that are imported to Ukraine from 24 to 4 hours.
