On 17 May 2023, the European Commission published the proposal for an ambitious and comprehensive reform of the EU Customs Union. The European Commission considers these reforms necessary to create an agile and future-proof Customs Union, ready for increased trade volumes and digital transitions.
Key changes of the Customs reform proposal include designating digital platforms as ‘deemed importers’ and shifting the responsibility to these platforms for paying applicable customs duties as well as ensuring compliance with new procedural and legislative requirements.
