In general for those companies that make businesslike customs clearances a daily regularity is essential to use the possible simplification opportunities, as the market does not tolerate neither the downtime of several hours, and waiting for the goods for more days, nor the unnecessary filling in of documents.

Using together the electronic customs clearances and the simplifications notably reduces the necessary time, energy and the cost of customs clearances.

Those who are not able to keep up, their efficiency decreases in such a large measure, that they loose their clients in the sharp market competition in a short time, as this really happened with many companies in the last few years because of this reason.

In order to avoid all these negative experiences we developed our electronic customs declaration systems at all of our premises, and we acquired, and acquire up to now every possible simplified local customs clearance permissions also complying with the clients’ requirements.

Customs regulations have already made possible for secure economic operators the using of simplified customs procedures before our joining to the EU, but the initiation of electronic customs (E-customs) is undeniably in the interest of economic operators and of the customs authorities as well, which came to the front in the last few years

The main objective of E-customs is changing the paper based procedures to electronic procedures that are standard at Community level, in order to create a modern, competitive environment for customs, to ensure the legal international trade and the rapid movement of goods without barriers..

For the operation of a professional customs department is essential to have certain local customs permissions.

In case of simplified local customs procedures not goods and the vehicles of transport move between the client and the customs office, but the information is exchanged. Certainly among others an adequate information technological background must be ensured for these procedures
