TIE comments on new EU customs rules

At a meeting with all EU Member States organized by the Belgian Presidency, Toy Industries of Europe (TIE) presented its views on the ongoing review of EU customs legislation:

• TIE strongly supported the proposed simplifications of customs procedures for reputable companies and emphasized that small and medium-sized enterprises should also benefit from these measures

• TIE emphasized the importance of tackling the import of small packs of unsafe and counterfeit toys and advocated the introduction of a deemed importer obligation;

• TIE emphasized the need to accelerate the implementation of these measures where possible.

EU Member States will continue to discuss the revision of EU customs legislation, with little progress.
