  8. SMART BORDER DEFINITION  Smart borders involve utilising modern technology, risk management, domestic and international cooperation as well as international standards to create secure and low-friction borders  Smart borders recognise that people and goods carry different risks and so separate these flows so they can be managed differently

  9. SMART BORDERS 2.0  Based on international standards and operational best practices from different parts of the world supported by state-of-the-art technology  Can be implemented regardless of the legal framework for the UK’s exit from the EU; therefore the solution can be ready to operate with a minimum transition period  Includes Free Movement of persons under CTA and creates a low-friction border for the movement of goods

  11. INVISIBLE BORDER UTILIZING EXISTING TECHNOLOGY

  12. CONCLUSION 1  There will be a need of a Customs and Border solution post-Brexit on 29 March 2019, regardless of political solution and Brexit negotiation results. It will have severe consequences if such a Customs and Border solution is not designed, developed and implemented to facilitate the movement of people and trade.

  13. CONCLUSION 2  It is possible to implement a Customs and Border solution that meets the requirements of the EU Customs legislation (Union Customs Code) and procedures, with expected post-Brexit volumes of cross-border people and goods, if using a combination of international standards, global best practices and state-of-the-art technology upgraded to a Smart Border 2.0 or similar solution
