Abstract

The objective of this study was to examine the role of modern digital technologies in identifying violations of legislation in the customs sphere. The selection of methods in this work was based on a combination of comparative legal and formal legal approaches to analyse the stated subject matter. The research yielded results that clearly illustrate the role of digital data exchange technologies in reducing the time required for customs operations between member countries of the World Customs Organization (WCO), as well as minimising the impact of the human factor in detecting potential offences in this domain. An analysis of the current legislation regulating customs operations among WCO member states and the Republic of Kazakhstan identified a set of unified criteria for assessing common objectives that can be successfully achieved through the application of digital technological solutions in customs enforcement practices to detect various violations. It was established that the legislative frameworks of different WCO member countries and Kazakhstan share several similar provisions governing the use of digital technologies to enhance the efficiency of customs authorities. The study evaluates the role of digital technologies in ensuring secure international transportation and customs oversight. Additionally, a theoretical assessment was conducted on the efficacy and utility of implementing the Single Window system in these countries, which significantly improves coordination among national customs services (as WCO members), entities engaged in foreign trade, customs authorities, and governmental bodies responsible for foreign economic activity and issuing permits.
