Unit 15 customs mission

Text

Russia has had a Customs Service in some form for about 1000 years and Customs business has always been considered important and prestigious.

The Customs mission is actually threefold: to collect and protect revenue; to enforce customs and other laws; and to interdict the illegal flow of narcotics and other contraband.

Collection and protection of revenue is the responsibility with which the Customs started. Most of that fiscal activity takes place at different ports of entry where commercial cargo arrives from abroad. The Customs performs inspections to ensure that the merchandise fits the description and quantity claimed on the documents. Subsequent paper processing determines the proper classification and duty assessment. Ultimately, the Customs actually makes the collection of the revenue.

The Customs had to establish the legal foundation to facilitate legitimate trade and travel, to encourage business, to safeguard the quality of life and public health. The first Russian Customs Statute was handed down in 1667. It was the first attempt to arrange customs regimes. Nowadays, besides its own laws and intricate rates of duty, the Customs enforces a number of laws of other federal agencies such as: Culture Ministry, Health Ministry, Agriculture Ministry, Tax Service, Immigration Service, etc.

The Customs is responsible for traditional border-related law enforcement responsibilities, and one of the primary missions nowadays is anti-terrorism, that is why Customs officers screen all people, vehicles and goods entering the country. To act efficiently, the Customs has to upgrade the skills of inspectional staff; set up special enforcement teams; develop intelligence gathering techniques; solidify cooperation with other law enforcement agencies; carry out controlled deliveries and international operations.

Today the Russian Federation has a modern, multi-functioning Customs Service which provides the bulk of the federal budget, is the expert authority in the movement of goods across national boundaries, vigorously carries out its enforcement activities and enables this country to be an equal member of the world community.
