Procedures
Modern states are no longer mere tax collectors aiming to increase their coffers to only do construction work – in the best-case scenario – but also to become facilitators of the whole community’s well-being through sustainable, environment-friendly, inclusive, developing and equitable trade. Voluntary disclosure of errors in the customs declaration should be applied in practice as one of the facilitation measures. Currently, voluntary disclosure is possible in Argentina within 30 days after customs clearance; an extension to 60 days is expected soon.
