The Revised Kyoto Convention (RKC) is the blueprint for modern and efficient Customs procedures in the 21st century. Alongside several international conventions and other instruments designed to harmonise and simplify Customs procedures, the RKC plays a key role in setting out the basic principles for all Customs procedures and practices. The RKC is built on a foundation of simplified and harmonised Customs procedures, underpinned by predictability, transparency, partnership, risk management, maximum use of information technology, and other modern Customs techniques.
There is no ‘one size fits all’ model. This e-learning will introduce you to useful concepts that they can flexibly apply to their own individual administrations.
La Convention de Kyoto révisée (CKR) constitue le fondement des régimes douaniers efficaces et modernes du XXIe siècle. Outre de nombreuses conventions internationales et d’autres instruments conçus pour harmoniser et simplifier les régimes douaniers, la CKR joue un rôle essentiel dans la définition des principes de base applicables aux régimes douaniers et pratiques douanières. La CKR est basée sur des régimes douaniers simplifiés et harmonisés, soutenus par la prévisibilité, la transparence, le partenariat, la gestion des risques, l’utilisation maximale de la technologie de l’information et d’autres techniques douanières modernes.

The Trade Facilitation Agreement (TFA) is the product of almost 10 years of World Trade Organization (WTO) negotiations. It will be legally binding once two-thirds of the World Trade Organization Members accept it, on those Members that accept it.
Driven by the spectacular growth in global trade, and the urgency to reduce the time and cost of moving goods across borders, the TFA contains provisions for speeding up the movement, release and clearance of goods. It sets out best practice for cooperation between Customs and other stakeholders, and it contains provisions for technical assistance and support for nations who may need it.
El Acuerdo sobre Facilitación del Comercio (AFC) es el resultado de cerca de 10 años de negociaciones de la Organización Mundial del Comercio (OMC). Este Acuerdo será vinculante una vez que dos tercios de los 162* Miembros de la Organización Mundial del Comercio lo acepten y su cumplimiento será obligatorio para aquellos que lo acepten.
Surgido a raíz del espectacular aumento del comercio mundial y de la necesidad de reducir el tiempo y los costes de desplazamiento transfronterizo de mercancías, el AFC recoge disposiciones para acelerar el movimiento, la entrega y la autorización de mercancías. Establece mejores prácticas de cooperación entre el personal de aduanas y demás partes interesadas y cuenta con disposiciones de asistencia técnica para aquellas naciones que la necesiten.
Some goods which need to be brought into a country for certain specific reasons (an exhibition, commercial demonstration, humanitarian mission, etc.) are exempt from Customs duties under the express condition that they are re-exported within a specified timeframe. This is what is known as the temporary admission procedure.
The Convention on Temporary Admission signed in Istanbul on 26 June 1990 provided a means of bringing together, and simplifying, various instruments governing temporary admission which were already in existence at that time.
The most important tools covered by the Istanbul Convention are the ATA carnet (for goods) and the CPD carnet (for vehicles), which are standardized documents used by Customs services to check temporary admissions. Nevertheless, many problems have been encountered with the application of the Convention in the field, and with the use of the carnets in certain specific circumstances.
The training is therefore focused on the very practical issue of the use of ATA and CPD carnets, with lessons dealing in detail with the documents themselves and how they are used in different situations.
Certaines marchandises amenées à séjourner dans un pays pour certaines raisons précises (une exposition, une démonstration commerciale, une mission humanitaire, etc.) sont exonérées de droits de douane à la condition expresse qu’elles soient réexportées dans un laps de temps déterminé. C’est le processus d’admission temporaire.
La Convention relative à l’admission temporaire, signée le 26 juin 1990 à Istanbul, a permis l’unification et la simplification des différents instruments liés aux règles d’importation temporaire qui existaient déjà avant cette date.
Les principaux outils repris dans cette Convention sont les carnets ATA (pour les marchandises) et CPD (pour les véhicules), documents standardisés qui permettent le contrôle des admissions temporaires par les services douaniers. Néanmoins, de nombreux problèmes ont été soulevés quant à l’application sur le terrain de la Convention et à l’utilisation des carnets dans certains cas particuliers.
La formation est donc orientée sur l’aspect très concret de l’utilisation des carnets ATA et CPD, à l’aide de cours traitant précisément des documents eux-mêmes et de leurs modalités d’utilisation dans diverses situations.
