COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING DECISION (EU) 2019/2151

of 13 December 2019

establishing the work programme relating to the development and deployment of the electronic systems provided for in the Union Customs Code

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 952/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 9 October 2013 laying down the Union Customs Code (1), and in particular to Article 281 thereof,

Whereas:

 

(1)

Article 6 of Regulation (EU) No 952/2013 laying down the Union Customs Code provides that all exchanges of information between customs authorities and between economic operators and customs authorities and storage of such information are to be made using electronic data processing techniques. Article 280 of the Regulation provides that the Commission is to draw up a work programme relating to the development and deployment of the electronic systems (‘the work programme’).

 

(2)

The Commission adopted the first work programme by means of Commission Implementing Decision 2014/255/EU (2) and updated it for the first time in 2016 by means of Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2016/578 (3). The 2016 work programme needs to be updated to take account of new resource- and priority-based planning for the electronic systems. It is also necessary to take account of the amendment to Article 278 of Regulation (EU) No 952/2013 made by Regulation (EU) 2019/632 of the European Parliament and of the Council (4) to prolong the transitional use of means other than the electronic data-processing techniques provided for in Regulation (EU) No 952/2013. To ensure stable and reliable planning for deployment of electronic systems provided for in Regulation (EU) No 952/2013, future updates of the work programme should take place only if there are new developments. The provision requiring an update of the work programme every year should therefore be deleted.

 

(3)

It is also necessary to further specify certain elements of the reporting obligation, which was imposed on the Member States and on the Commission by the new Article 278a of Regulation (EU) No 952/2013 in order to monitor the progress in developing the electronic systems. In accordance with paragraph 4 of this Article, Member States are to provide the Commission, twice per year, with an updated table on their own progress in developing and deploying the electronic systems. The table should contain the dates for completion of certain milestones and, in the event of delays or risks of delays, the mitigating actions as referred to in Article 278a(3). It is also necessary to specify the dates by which the Member States should send the information. This will allow the Commission to draft and submit its report on progress in developing the electronic systems to the European Parliament and to the Council at the end of each year. The Member States should also inform the Commission immediately of substantial changes in their IT planning. However, given the reporting obligation provided in Article 278a(4), it is no longer necessary to require the Member States to send information 6 months before the deployment of a new electronic system.

 

(4)

The work programme should list the electronic systems provided for in Regulation (EU) No 952/2013, the relevant Articles providing for those systems and the dates on which they are expected to become operational. The work programme should distinguish between the electronic systems that the Member States are to develop themselves (‘national systems’) and those that they are to develop in cooperation with the Commission (‘trans-European systems’). All these electronic systems are needed for Regulation (EU) No 952/2013 to be fully effective. The list should be based on the...
