Tax debt management is electronically implemented by modern methods.
Regarding post-clearance audit, digital transformation will help Customs automatically identify entities subject to post-clearance audit on the basis of applying automated models of risk assessment, statistical analysis, and suspected signs on the information technology system.
Regarding the prevention and combat of smuggling, trade fraud, and illegal cross-border transportation of goods, customs will automatically collect and analyze information related to import, export, entry and exit people and means of transport through intelligence and international cooperation to make records identifying high-risk shipments under control criteria; automatically analyze and warn of unusual transactions in import and export activities of enterprises; automatically notify to specific addresses of suspected shipments and provide instructions on customs control measures; apply artificial intelligence in compliance measurement to execute effective control plans.
