Dear friends!
We bring to your attention a collection of publications of Sergei Mozer on the issues of membership of economic and customs unions in the World Customs Organization (WCO) – LEGAL STATUS OF THE EUROPEAN UNION IN THE WORLD CUSTOMS ORGANIZATION.
The World Customs Organization (WCO) has published a Research/policy note on Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) for Customs.
This note therefore aims to foster informed discussions on GenAI within Customs administrations, the broader WCO community, and among the technical and financial partners of Customs authorities worldwide.
The Strategic Trade Control Enforcement Implementation Guide has been the backbone of the STCE programme since its inception in 2016. The latest update of the Guide is currently available in English, and it contains, among other things, updated HS codes of strategic commodities, as well as new Annexes on Post Control Audit and Investigations. Other language versions will follow in 2024.
The WCO is pleased to launch an updated edition of its Gender Equality Organizational Assessment Tool (GEOAT). Originally launched in 2014, this self-assessment tool aims at assisting Customs and Revenue Administrations in assessing their policies and practices both internally (related to, for instance, human resource management) and externally (in their border operations and stakeholder relations) to further incorporate gender equality and diversity on a cross-cutting basis within their administrations.
The World Customs Organization (WCO) has published a comprehensive study detailing the digitalization of the Certificate of Origin (CO). This Study focuses on the practices of WCO Members in origin certification, emphasizing the digital transformation of the origin-related process. It aims to highlight both the challenges and success factors encountered by Members in this transition.
