Still using same RA IT system
Organizational problems are partly solved

Results: detecting frauds in unexplored field of inward
processing that will have multiple effects (companies,
offences, patterns..), which would trigger other Customs
departments and other agencies i.e. Audit Control,
Customs Investigations, Tax Administration…
Change of approach to RA itself through proofing the
development brought by using new, “smart” techniques
Strong regional cooperation
Compatible system used in all countries – easier and
prompt communication has direct impact on better
results
Faster but safer trade
