Monthly EU law news overview & Getting ready for 2024

Every week there are 10-20 EU customs and trade compliance law updates. They can have an immediate effect on business or signal a significant change in the near future. There is no other way to ensure compliance than to constantly monitor the changes and evaluate their effect on your specific business. However, the law is not an easy read and knowledge is required to understand it.
The goal of our monthly overviews is to draw your attention to the main latest changes and to provide explanations and knowledge on selected aspects.
During the webinar, we will:
- Give you an overview of the latest EU legal updates in the field of customs and trade compliance (for a period of around one month)
- Explain context and meaning for business of some of them
- Point out some aspects to think of when getting ready for 2024
- Focus on the topic: Sanctions for customs infringements - developments in the EU and EU member states (e.g. ECJ judgement C-653/22 of 23.11.2023)
- Present EU Customs & Trade Compliance Continuous Professional Development (CPD) programme and how it can help you to stay on top of the news
