16 February 2012 EBA General Meeting with Oleksandr Dorokhovskyi
The European Business Association hosted the General meeting of its membership with Oleksandr Dorokhovsky, the First Deputy Head of the State Customs Service of Ukraine and top executive management of the State Customs Service of Ukraine (SCS).

EBA General meeting with Mr Dorokhovsky continued a series of meetings of EBA member companies with customs administration. Interactive Q&A format of the meeting gave the participants a unique possibility to address the burning issues of customs clearance directly to the SCS management and get firsthand updates on the most pressing concerns.

Among the issues that top the list of EBA members' concerns were overpriced customs value, deficiencies of customs nomenclature and cargo clearance delays at Odesa and Illichivsk sea ports. EBA members also took an interest in
such pilot projects as customs e-declaration, electronic customs value database and preliminary documentary control maintenance.

Mr Dorokhovsky and the key personnel of the SCS expressed true willingness to help businesses solve the most complicated cases and sweep aside technical barriers to smooth and transparent cargo clearance.
