WCO Customs Data Model §Revised Kyoto Convention §SAFE Framework of Standards (As Grace Hopper said, "The wonderful thing about standards is that there are so many of them to choose from". ) §WCO Customs Data Model §The WCO’s Minimum Requirements and Expectations CBRDM Project Information Meeting: Dublin 2

REVISED KYOTO CONVENTION · · · Selectivity based on risk management Audit-based controls Pre-arrival processing Limit information to that necessary to ensure compliance with Customs law Electronic submission of declarations and supporting documents Use of international standards CBRDM Project Information Meeting: Dublin 3

Security &Trade Facilitation • Resolution I (2002) – WCO Task Force • Develop Standards • HARMONIZED PROCEDURES eg: revised Kyoto Convention and WCO Business Partnership Guidelines • HARMONIZED CUSTOMS CONTROL - common risk management/assessment/profiles • HARMONIZED DATA REQUIREMENTS = WCO Data Model with UCR as common action key CBRDM Project Information Meeting: Dublin 4

Security &Trade Facilitation • Resolution II (2004) – WCO High-level Strategic Group – Implement Standards/Capacity Building – SAFE Framework of Standards/AEO Guidelines – Integrated Supply Chain Management – Use of Data Model for standardised exchanges B 2 G and G 2 G CBRDM Project Information Meeting: Dublin 5

The Data Sets • Maximum data sets – for 10 different procedures – in total 253 data elements • Based on the 2005 Edition of the UNTDED • Detailed information about a single data element CBRDM Project Information Meeting: Dublin 9

The Data Sets • Based on the UNTDED; data set was structured into 7 categories – G 7, V 1. 0 – Eg: Commodity & Shipment Identifiers, Duty/Tax Calculations, Location, Parties – Since Version 2. 0, data elements are aggregated in object classes – The adoption of UMM/UML for V 2. 0 was a key improvement CBRDM Project Information Meeting: Dublin 10

Number of data elements CBRDM Project Information Meeting: Dublin 11

WCO Customs Data Model V 2. 0 • • • Conveyance report (FAL Form) Cargo report (Manifest/Air Waybill) Goods declarations (Commercial Data) Transit UML/UMM – Use Case, Activity & Class Diagrams; Use Case Descriptions • CCTS (naming convention) • Identification of core components CBRDM Project Information Meeting: Dublin 12

Version 3. 0 • Single Window Domain • Incorporates “OGA” data - agriculture, food safety, certain hazardous goods • Also looks at response messages and an increased scope for transit • Considers the implications of XML, more analysis of modelling and data structures CBRDM Project Information Meeting: Dublin 13

Customs and Single Window • Customs = dominant role at the border • US ITDS and SAFE Port Act (Bill Nolle) • Similar legislative/administrative arrangements in CA, AU, KO, NL etc. • Adopted 3 rd Level of Abstraction for data standards – technology neutrality • Adopting a whole-of-government approach to border regulatory processes and associated data CBRDM Project Information Meeting: Dublin 14

WCO Requirements/Expectations • WCO Data Model Ownership stays with WCO and V 3. 0 is the current priority • Legal analysis of UN/CEFACT ODP IPR Policy Waiver undertaken • UN/ECE and WCO Mo. U is a possible mechanism to establish cooperation • June WCO Council meeting might impose its own guidelines and principles • WCO broadly supports CBRDM Project Information Meeting: Dublin 15
