  2. III. Information flow Integration • MUTUAL RECOGNITION OF NEIGHBORING COUNTRIES DOCUMENTS BY BILATERAL AND MULTILATERAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN NEIGHBORING COUNTRIES • No basis for additional control of transit goods • Having appropriate certificates aren’t subject to additional inspection at frontier posts. • Publication what country’s certificates are recognized or on the contrary what country’s aren’t • network and database exchange systems

DATA EXCHANGE AMONG CUSTOMS AND OTHER GOVERNMENT AGENCIES: • introduction of ASYCUDA system; • implementation of TRACECA project “Harmonization of border – crossing procedures”; • creation of electronic documents with different levels of access and management for various governmental agencies; • Data exchange system gives opportunity for additional control outside of active control zone (in case of requirement).
