EU Customs Reform Conference

The Customs Knowledge Institute hosts its EU Customs Reform Conference on 19-20 November 2026 at the Clayton Hotel, Cardiff Lane, Dublin. It runs during the Irish Presidency of the EU Council and draws customs and trade experts from across Europe.

Day one reviews where EU customs reform stands. A fireside chat covers Trust and Check procedures, the EU Customs Data Hub, the EU Customs Authority, and the impact on e-commerce. It also gives updates on EUDR, VIDA and the UK-EU TCA. An evening dinner follows.

Day two takes a workshop format. It examines how the reform affects customs brokers, the SME sector, software providers and importers. It also addresses the complexity and harmonisation of controlled and excise goods. Open-floor sessions are hosted by representatives of the Vilnius Manifesto and CKI.
