• Parliament adopts its position on major reform of EU Customs Code
  - Thorough preliminary vetting would enable trustworthy companies to benefit from fewer customs checks later
  - Platforms must submit information to EU customs authorities about goods shipped to EU from third countries
  - All EU customs authorities to use the same IT system EU DataHub
  The overhaul of the EU Customs Code reform would change the way customs authorities operate, cooperate with traders and manage goods that people order online.
• The EU Customs Code needs a thorough revamp due to the exponential growth of e-commerce and many new product standards, bans, obligations and sanctions the EU has put in place in recent years.
• New digital solutions
  The reform establishes a new IT platform called EU DataHub as the main working tool for all European customs authorities.
• Background
