Klymenko: Ukraine to significantly improve situation in customs sphere in a year or two
The World Bank has in the last three years noted the worsening of the situation in the customs sphere in Ukraine, but the country's government wants to reverse this trend and improve the situation in a year or two, Income and Tax Minister Oleksandr Klymenko has said.
"This is a very significant and ambitious task, and we will cope with it," he said at an international conference "Ukraine and Partners" in Kyiv on Thursday.
Klymenko said that a new Customs Code had recently come into force, which helped make a number of positive changes.
"We have significantly reduced the time of customs clearance and the list of documents required for this," he said.
He noted that the Income and Tax Ministry would continue to introduce electronic document management and would focus on post-audit, which was made possible after the unification of customs and tax services in the ministry.
Klymenko also stressed the importance of creating the institution of an authorized economic operator.
