The best way to consolidate knowledge is repetition. Especially when one day of the conference is so rich in knowledge that, as one participant in the conference joked, “it doesn't fit in your head anymore.” So, we invite you to recall the topics and some of their aspects discussed at the 4th Customs Practitioners Conference in June. We also provide links to the conference records available for purchase (members of the Customs Practitioners Association are free of charge, see the benefits and conditions of membership) [1] and articles published by some speakers after the conference. Please note that the Customs Practitioners Association is preparing for the 5th Customs Practitioners Conference, which will take place on 2 December in Kaunas and online. We invite you to propose topics, raise questions and, of course, participate! More information will be published soon in www.lcpa.lt, contacts: info@lcpa.lt
