The Cabinet of Ministers approved ‘single window’ system at customs

On 25 May 2016, the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine approved establishment and concept of functioning of the automated ‘single window’ system at customs, which is an electronic data exchange system aimed at facilitation of customs procedures and elimination of corruption practices at customs points.

Thus, the ‘single window’ system provides for less customs procedures and establishment of unified database, which allows various control authorities to automatically exchange information in relation to goods passing through the territory of Ukraine.

Thus, all types of customs control specified in Ukrainian legislation will be made by way of electronic data exchange, which results in transferring from paper documentation and significant simplification of customs registration of goods.
