Customs law
The globalization of the economy increasingly requires companies to be able to use all the tools at their disposal to increase their competitiveness in international markets.
In this context, customs and taxation aspects play a decisive role both as a factor in minimizing costs and as a tool to optimize the flow of goods from and toward foreign markets.
The knowledge of customs formalities and related VAT obligations makes it possible to plan import/export flows, optimizing the use of the various customs regimes and VAT tax deposits and reducing the costs associated with customs duties. At the same time, the in-depth knowledge of customs regulations enables the optimization of the technical and management procedures necessary to avoid documentation inconsistencies that can lead to expensive penalties.
