Azerbaijan to continue simplifying customs declaration process

Baku, Azerbaijan, May 25

By Anvar Mammadov - Trend:

Azerbaijan’s State Customs Committee will continue simplification of the customs declaration process, the Committee’s Chairman Safar Mehdiyev said May 25 at a conference dedicated to the Entrepreneurs’ Day in Azerbaijan.

In the near future, the committee will launch a new system of alerting entrepreneurs about the goods’ border crossing process, he noted.

“We are implementing a new SMS notification system that will make it possible to let entrepreneurs know whether the cargo has arrived at the border or not,” Mehdiyev said. “Entrepreneurs will also be able to get information on the amount of the tax. All this will make it possible to significantly speed up the trading process.”

Mehdiyev earlier told reporters that Azerbaijan’s State Customs Committee aims to introduce modern technologies in its activity.

“The changes taking place in the global trade lead to the need for reforms in the customs system,” he said. “This is inevitable, and I think we will apply such innovations in our activity.”
