Summary
Key Points: 
  • The proposal on Establishing the Customs programme for cooperation in the field of customs is part of the MFF package and is the successor to Customs 2020 programme, opening a new multiannual period for actions aimed at strengthening the Customs Union.
  • The programme continues to facilitate coordination between Member State authorities as well as capacity building, including training and exchange of best practices, in order to ensure a uniform application of EU customs legislation.
  • The transfer to an e-customs structure will not be finalised under the current Customs 2020 programme due to delays in some parts of the relevant IT architecture.
  • Therefore, one major focus of the customs programme will be the further development, operation and maintenance of the customs IT infrastructure.
