COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2019/1026

of 21 June 2019

on technical arrangements for developing, maintaining and employing electronic systems for the exchange of information and for the storage of such information under 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 the Council of 9 October 2013 laying down the Union Customs Code (1), and in particular Articles 8(1)(b) and 17 thereof,

Whereas:

 

(1)

Article 6(1) of Regulation (EU) No 952/2013 (‘the Code’) requires that all exchanges of information, such as declarations, applications or decisions, between customs authorities and between economic operators and customs authorities, and the storage of that information, as required under the customs legislation, are made by using electronic data-processing techniques.

 

(2)

Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2016/578 (2) establishes the Work Programme for the implementation of the electronic systems required for the application of the Code, which are to be developed through projects listed in section II of the Annex to that Decision.

 

(3)

Important technical arrangements for the functioning of the electronic systems should be specified, such as arrangements for development, testing and deployment as well as for maintenance and for changes to be introduced in the electronic systems. Further arrangements should be specified concerning data protection, updating of data, limitation of data processing and systems ownership and security.

 

(4)

In order to safeguard the rights and interests of the Union, Member States and economic operators, it is important to lay down the procedural rules and provide for alternative solutions to be implemented in the event of a temporary failure of the electronic systems.

 

(5)

The Customs Decisions system, developed through the UCC Customs Decisions project referred to in Implementing Decision (EU) 2016/578, pursues the objective of harmonising the processes for the application for a customs decision, for the decision taking and the decision management in the whole of the Union using only electronic data-processing techniques. It is therefore necessary to lay down the rules governing that electronic system. The scope of the system should be determined by reference to the customs decisions which are to be applied for, taken and managed using that system. Detailed rules should be set out for the system's common components (EU trader portal, central customs decisions management system and customer reference services) and national components (national trader portal and national customs decisions management system), by specifying their functions and their interconnections.

 

(6)

Furthermore, rules have to be put in place concerning the data relating to authorisations that are already stored in existing electronic systems, such as the Regular Shipping Service system (RSS), and national systems and that have to be migrated to the Customs Decisions System.

 

(7)

The Uniform User Management and Digital Signature system, developed through the Direct Trader Access to the European Information Systems (Uniform User Management & Digital Signature) project referred to in Implementing Decision (EU) 2016/578, is to manage the authentication and access verification process for economic operators and other users. Detailed rules need to be set out regarding the scope and characteristics of the system by defining the different components (common and national components) of the system, their functions and interconnections. However, the ‘Digital Signature’ functionality is not yet available as part of the...
