Сегодня современные информационные технологии стали краеугольным камнем таможенных процессов, связанных с построением единого информационного пространства государств-членов Таможенного союза. Прилагаются огромные усилия по внедрению современных информационных технологий в работу таможенных органов и обновлению существующих компьютерных программ, включая инфраструктуру, обеспечивающую бесперебойное функционирование всех компонентов Единой автоматизированной информационной системы таможенных органов (the Unified Automated Data System).
Ключевым звеном в этой работе является переход на новую систему организации таможенного оформления и таможенного контроля, применение которой позволит снизить затраты времени на проведение таможенного контроля, повысить его эффективность и осуществлять максимально быстро таможенное оформление товаров и транспортных средств, перемещаемых через таможенную границу Российской Федерации.
В соответствии с Таможенным кодексом Российской Федерации декларанту предоставляется возможность декларирования товаров и подачи документов, необходимых для таможенного оформления, в электронной форме.
