  1. EXTRASTAT IN THE CONTEXT OF THE MODERNIZED COMMUNITY CUSTOMS CODE 1st meeting of the Working Party on International Trade in Goods and Trade in Services Statistics Paris, 22-24 September 2008 Ales Capek Eurostat

  2. EU Customs union: implications for FTS • Intrastat: statistics on trade between EU Member States - based on Intrastat declarations - Issues: quality, burden on enterprises, simplification • Extrastat: statistics on trade with non-EU countries - based on customs declarations - Issues: Impact of the Modernized Community Customs Code, « European » perspective of Customs versus « national » perspective of statistics, simplification Name of the presentation

  3. Past system • With a few exceptions customs declarations are the source of statistics • EU Member State where customs declaration is lodged is the importing or exporting Member State • The only « problem »: Rotterdam effect Name of the presentation

  4. Goods movement: Present System Name of the presentation

  5. Changes in the customs rules • Place of lodging customs declarations is disconnected from physical movement of goods - Single Authorization for Simplified Procedures (SASP) -Centralised Customs Clearance (CCC) • Customs declarations not required in case of « self-assessment », only ex-post on-site controls Name of the presentation

  6. Impact on FTS • Wrong allocation of trade flows to individual EU Member States under SASP and CCC, only EU aggregates are correct • Size of misallocation may reach in % of total trade double digit figures • Non-existence of data in case of self-assessment, as big companies might be affected impact on trade figures might be significant Name of the presentation

  7. Goods movement: Centralised Customs Clearance Name of the presentation

  8. Centralised Customs Clearance – solutions for FTS • Customs declarations have to contain information on actual importing or exporting EU Member State (MS of destination/actual export) • Data exchange system has to ensure that data available in the supervising EU Member State reach the actual importing or exporting EU Member State Name of the presentation

  9. Problems • Information on Member State of destination/actual export is not mandatory data element on the customs declaration • Quality of this information • Data exchange system among 27 Member States is costly, problem of timeliness • Use of e-customs system is problematic as it was designed for different purposes Name of the presentation

  10. Self-assessment • Customs declarations in traditional sense don’t exist • Alternative system of direct collection of data by Customs or statistical administrations will increase reporting burden on companies • Quality problems similar to Intrastat Name of the presentation

  11. New Extrastat • New regulation on Extrastat to be adopted by the European Parliament and the Council and to enter into force in 2010 • Reaction to the changes in the EU Customs system • New indicators: trade by business characteristics, trade by invoicing currency • Enhanced quality framework Name of the presentation
