Task 7. a) Read and translate the text.
WHY IS CUSTOMS MODERNISATION NECESSARY?
It is true that Customs’ role is primarily about the control of goods crossing borders. There is, however, nuance in this because Customs administrations have different functions, resources and authority.
Some Customs administrations make emphasis on duty collection. For others, non-financial matters like narcotics trafficking and security take priority. On the other hand, nations with low import tariffs are determined to improve trade facilitation. Some administrations do not use risk management and post audit control and instead attempt to physically inspect every consignment. Thus, Customs must strive to achieve balance.
The WCO takes a strategic management approach to promote modernization in all areas of Customs roles and responsibilities, including revenue collection, trade facilitation, enforcement, and security, in order to strike balance.
It is evident that an administration that focuses on revenue collection can learn from an administration that focuses on trade facilitation or security, and consequently boost revenue collection. An administration that focuses on security can learn from an administration that focuses on trade facilitation or revenue collection, and strengthen security, and so on.
Thus, a facilitated Customs process leads to security. At the same time, a secured Customs process leads to facilitation.
b) Make a glossary. Choose seven words to remember.
c) Make 5 questions to the text and answer them.
