Dear friends,
The issue of developing the institution of digital (smart) customs, and with it the introduction of advanced digital (breakthrough) technologies in its activities, can be traced in most scientific studies.
To date, a large amount of information on this issue is presented in foreign languages, the study of which I strongly recommend to you, especially for students and graduate students. Any research material, for example, a Ph.D. dissertation, scientific article or graduation project, will only benefit if it contains an analysis of the legal regulation and law enforcement practice of foreign customs services, as well as the approaches of the World Customs Organization.
Today I have selected for you several video conferences (in English) on the development of the Digital Customs Institute. I recommend viewing them with the teletext (subtitles) option turned on, when the speaker’s speech is transformed into text, which ensures better assimilation of presentations and the material (reports) being voiced.
