Because of the perceived risk to their customs revenue, a number of developing countries have been reluctant to apply the Agreement. (...) Verifications are selective, based on risk. Through effective risk management, customs will have the ability to detect the most significant violations including in the valuation area. (...) To be effective and to reduce the opportunities for corruption, such a system should be based on the following: A  one-step process: customs declaration should be lodged at the reception counter of the customs office and the paperwork processed by the administration with no further need for contact, until that processing has been completed.

This allows customs clearance of the goods and payment of all duties and charges to take place at their final destination rather than at the point of entry so that the goods can enter into free circulation, or into a subsequent suspensive procedure (e.g. customs warehouse, inward 1 The non-EU territories of the United Kingdom that participate in the Customs Union are the Sovereign Base Areas of Akrotiri and Dhekelia in Cyprus, Jersey, Guernsey and the Isle of Man. (...) The guarantee is calculated in such a way that it covers the full amount of the customs debt likely to be incurred and is based on the import duties that would be applicable to goods of the same kind at the point of entry into the EU if the goods were released for free circulation. (...) The NCTS offers traders many advantages, including improved quality of service:  Less time spent waiting at Customs: because declarations will have been sent electronically beforehand, advanced risk analysis can be applied and decisions can be taken beforehand on whether or not to examine the goods;  Greater flexibility as regards the time and place for presenting declarations to Customs;  Earlier discharge of the transit procedure: because an electronic message will be used in place of returning the paper copy ("No 5") by mail to the office of departure, this leads to faster release of the guarantee;  Reduction in the high costs incurred in the paper-based system of declaring goods (lengthy procedures involving considerable time and effort);  Harmonization of Customs procedures and greater clarity of the transit operation, for the benefit of trade;  No loss of valuable time at the office of destination waiting for a decision: Customs may, under the NCTS, decide well in advance of the arrival of the goods at the office(s) of transit and office of destination whether or not they need to check the consignment, on the basis of the information they have received.  Additional simplification advantage for authorized consignors and authorized consignees, who communicate with Customs using only NCTS: this further accelerates the entire procedure.

This is because our objective assessment of Thailand’s compliance with its obligations under Article 7.1 requires us to base our review of the factual determinations made by Thai Customs when it applied the valuation method under Article 7.1 on Thai Customs’ explanations and information at the time of determination.” (8) 7.   (...) In these circumstances, we consider that making an assessment of Thai Customs’ decision not to deduct these three items, as explained in this proceeding based on the evidence before Thai Customs at the time of the determination, helps to resolve the parties’ dispute relating to the deductibility of the concerned items. (11) ” (12) C. (...) The Panel therefore finds that … as well as the various resolutions establishing indicative prices, which together mandate the use of indicative prices for customs valuation purposes, are inconsistent with the obligation to conduct customs valuation of subject goods based on the sequential application of the methods established by Articles 1 , 2 , 3 , 5 and 6 of the Customs Valuation Agreement . ” (13) 9.

However, there is less appreciation of the scope and significance of these costs in customs administrations in developing countries. As mentioned previously, the design of the customs procedures should be based on an assessment of risk and selective controls targeted at high-risk goods and enterprises. (...) At the same time, there is evidence to suggest that these types of controls are much less effective than the risk-based, selective controls that are in place in modern customs administrations. (...) In order to improve competitiveness, in our view, the modernization of customs administration activities should be based on selective, risk-based controls that allow the majority of shipments to enter the economy with a minimum of delay.
