The Association participates in the work of the Customs Consultative Committee. The Committee examines customs legislation, its practical application, projects of legal acts and questions relevant to businesses. Conferences Legislation is constantly changing at both European Union and national level, and the courts are providing new interpretations of the appliacation in practice.

Customs broker course The profession of customs broker is not only interesting but also in demand, due to the growing volume of customs procedures (due to Brexit, changes in VAT and other reasons).
