Dissertation introduction (part of the abstract) on the topic "Features of administrative and legal regulation of customs: Based on the materials of the Russian Federation and the European Union"

The most important role in ensuring the economic interests of Russia belongs to the customs service - one of the basic institutions modern economy... Taking a direct part in the regulation of international trade exchange of subjects of foreign economic activity, and carrying out a fiscal function at the borders of the country, the customs service effectively replenishes the federal budget and thereby contributes to solving the economic problems of Russia.

Activity customs service universal and specific, it has no analogues. Its versatility is manifested in the variety of social functions performed by customs authorities, enshrined in the Customs Code of the Russian Federation and concretized in the Regulations on the State Customs Committee of Russia, as well as in the Regulations on the regional customs administration, customs and customs post of the Russian Federation.1

The transition of the country's economy to the conditions of market relations, the demonopolization of foreign economic activity, the separation of customs institutions into an independent state structure, the rapid change in legislation led to the fact that more than 20 ministries and departments have transferred part of their legal, economic, statistical, environmental and other functions to the Russian customs service. ... The fulfillment of these functions has become an integral part of the activities of the customs authorities of Russia.

However, their main functions are to replenish the revenue side of the federal budget (fiscal function), to combat customs offenses in the foreign economic sphere of the state (law enforcement function) and legal regulation customs (administrative function).

1 See: Order of the State Customs Committee of Russia dated January 10, 1996, No. 12 "On Approval of General Provisions on the Customs Authorities of the Russian Federation"

In conditions when the activities of customs authorities are becoming more complex and multifaceted, and the amount of resources allocated by the state for the development of the customs service is decreasing, the tasks of improving customs legislation and modernizing the customs system in connection with the upcoming accession of Russia to the World Trade Organization (WTO) become especially urgent. ...

The main goals of improving customs legislation and modernizing the customs system are: 1 stimulating integration Russian economy into the system of world economic relations; assistance in restructuring the economy of the Russian Federation and ensuring the effective implementation of the fiscal function of customs duties; phased unification and reduction of customs duties rates; elimination of customs and tax incentives; improving the practice of customs administration.

The implementation of these goals, in connection with Russia's accession to the WTO, implies a transition to a qualitatively new level of customs and tariff regulation of foreign trade relations, including: creating conditions for successful work foreign investors in the Russian Federation; coordination and regulation of foreign trade activities of foreign trade participants; improving the import customs tariff; information support of the state in the integration of Russian goods into the international market; formation of a progressive structure of export, creation of a system of its state support, including insurance, etc. 2

In the process of building a democratic rule of law in Russia with market economy the study of the problems of the activities of customs authorities as executive bodies receives a new impetus and proceeds in various aspects. The attention of specialists, previously drawn to specific types and local issues of customs management, is currently focused on the problem of a comprehensive study of the modern activities of customs authorities and the effectiveness of the used mechanisms of customs regulation in their totality.

With regard to the issues of improving customs legislation and modernizing the customs system, in connection with the upcoming accession of Russia to the WTO, the problems of administrative and legal regulation of customs are of particular importance due to the enormous scale of funds spent on organizing customs activities, as well as the expected economic return on the final results ...

However, at the moment, uncertainty has emerged in some areas of modernization of the customs system in Russia, and in particular, the lack of a theoretical study of the strategic and tactical problems of customs regulation of foreign economic activity.

This can be useful for the experience of the modern customs and tariff policy of the European Union in the field of customs regulation, based on the regulatory support of administrative functions in the customs sphere and complex automation. customs procedures.

The main customs technologies in the field of customs regulation and requiring complex automation may be customs clearance and customs control of goods of legal entities and individuals; control of delivery and customs clearance of vehicles; control of the customs value of goods; customs and banking control over foreign trade operations; information support of the activities of law enforcement units of customs authorities, etc.

Currently, the customs authorities of the Russian Federation are actively developing cooperation with the EU countries, taking into account one common border, in particular with Finland. In order to improve the quality of customs clearance and control, to identify and suppress the facts of customs offenses, information and customs specialists are exchanged, and joint operational activities are carried out. The participation of representatives of both parties in international seminars in various areas of work, etc.

Implementing the Federal target program development of the customs service, Russian customs officials focus on improving the existing system of customs clearance and control, on bringing the level of activity of the customs authorities of the Russian Federation to world standards, on the effectiveness of the fiscal function of collecting customs payments, on the development of forms and methods of combating customs offenses, on high-quality training and retraining of customs personnel.

Success in the activities of the customs service of Russia (including in solving the above tasks) is determined by many factors, an important place, among which is the improvement of the administrative and legal regulation of customs in the Russian Federation.

Under the administrative and legal regulation of the customs business should be understood customs regulation, which is a complex of measures and directions in the foreign economic sphere of the state, carried out through customs activities. The main goal of customs regulation is to implement the customs policy of the state through the tools of its implementation at various territorial levels: within the Federation as a whole, at the regional level, at the level of activities of customs and customs posts. Thus, the customs policy determines the goals, objectives and functions of administrative and legal regulation of customs in the Russian Federation. This explains the relevance of the selected topic of this study, its complexity and diversity.

The issues of improving the activities of customs authorities in the field of customs regulation of foreign economic activity of the state were previously considered mainly from the point of view of developing a general managerial decision and did not touch upon such significant aspects as regulatory support of administrative functions in the customs sphere. Meanwhile, the practical necessity of a normative-legal approach to the problem is approved by a number of authors.1

In recent years, the attention of many researchers has been focused on studying the experience of the customs service abroad, however, the active transfer of elements of the Western system of customs regulation into the structure of the customs business in Russia, unfortunately, has not yet been accompanied by a balanced assessment of the specifics of Russian public relations.

The theoretical basis of this dissertation is formed by the main provisions on customs regulation, as on legal activity in the foreign economic sphere of the state, based on the materials of the Russian Federation and the European Union, including the rational ideas of domestic and foreign lawyers, financiers and historians in the field of customs, with the aim of improvement of customs legislation and optimization of the administrative and legal activities of the customs authorities of Russia.

As a rule, with the help of customs regulation, any developed state creates a mechanism that links the economic interests of the national economy and the task of its optimal development with the processes taking place in the world economy. Russia should not and cannot be an exception in this regard.

The decentralization of foreign trade that took place more than ten years ago, the abolition of the state's monopoly on access to foreign markets, the difficult financial and economic situation of the country, the problem of preserving the economic integrity of the Federation bring to the fore the task of creating an effective mechanism of customs regulation capable of protecting economic interests, integrity, independence and security of Russia.

As in all countries of the world with a developing market economy, the creation of an effective mechanism for administrative and legal regulation of customs in the Russian Federation should be comprehensive and phased.

Transferring the experience of the European Union to Russian soil, one must remember that Russia is a huge country with a complex diversified economy, which is on the way of transformation to a market-based economic system.

Therefore, the foreign experience of customs legal relations should be applied in the Russian Federation in a form adapted to its conditions.

From all of the above, various conclusions can be drawn, and everyone has the right to prefer any of them. However, the general conclusion is that both for successful foreign economic activity and for the effective protection of the national economy, a clear and full-scale knowledge of all existing customs regulation instruments, the rules for their application and methods of protection against unfair use can be a sine qua non.

And this must be constantly learned, theory must accompany practice. This study is an attempt to provide a clue to this kind of knowledge.

INTRODUCTION

This work is devoted to the state administration of customs affairs in Russia.

The relevance of the topic lies in the fact that Russia is a country with a huge natural and technical potential to which the attention of the whole world is riveted. The huge trade turnover of Russia determines the increasing role and importance of customs and, in general, customs activities as an instrument of foreign economic activity closely related to the domestic and foreign policy of the Russian Federation. Having studied the course of administrative law, the cadet-border guard should be aware of the irreplaceable role of administrative legal norms in the customs law of Russia.

The degree of study of the topic. The problem of the structure of administrative-legal norms has been widely discussed in scientific literature for more than a decade. When writing this term paper used the works of D.N. Bakhrakh, T.N. Troshkin, Yu.F. Azarov, M.N. Marchenko, A.N. Guyev, A.N. Kozyrin.

The object of this work is views on the structure and content of administrative and legal regulation of the Customs legal regulations their connection with legal practice. Social relations developing in the management of customs affairs in Russia.

The subject of work is regulatory legal acts governing the implementation of state power in the customs sphere.

The purpose of the work is a holistic and logical study of the essence and structure and organization government controlled customs.

Find out what exactly is the Customs business in the Russian Federation and its legal basis;

Describe the main functions and powers of the customs authorities;

Consider the structure of the Federal Customs Service and identify areas and procedures for interaction between customs authorities and the FSB of Russia.

Based on the tasks set, the following basic provisions of the course work are submitted to the defense:

1. Customs is an integral part of the executive power system, the principles of which fully apply to it;

2. By their branch affiliation, the norms of customs legislation are almost entirely administrative and legal norms, which is due to the very nature of customs activities;

3. The Federal Customs Service is an important executive authority interacting with the protection of the State Border.

Structurally, this work consists of an introduction, two chapters, each of which has two paragraphs and conclusions. The first chapter deals with the general provisions of the customs business and its legal framework. Here the author reveals the essence of the features and content of the customs business, as well as the functions of the customs authorities. The second chapter of this work is devoted to the structure of customs authorities, powers and their role in maintaining the security of the Russian Federation on the state border. The directions and procedure for maintaining interaction with border agencies and border troops of the FSB of Russia are disclosed.

customs legal interaction authority

1. Customs business in the Russian Federation and its legal basis

The customs business in the Russian Federation consists of the customs policy of the Russian Federation, as well as the procedure and conditions for moving goods and vehicles across the customs border of the Russian Federation, collecting customs payments, customs clearance, customs control and other means of implementing customs policy.

The goals that are set in the course of the implementation of the state customs policy and specific measures of the entire customs business are to ensure the most efficient exchange of goods in the customs territory, stimulate the development of the national economy, participate in the protection of the Russian market, and solve other tasks of the economic policy of the Russian Federation.

The main distinguishing features of such a phenomenon as customs are, firstly, its complex, complex nature and, secondly, the heterogeneity of its constituent elements. These features are due to the nature and purpose of the customs business, which serves to solve multifaceted and very heterogeneous tasks. This is the originality and uniqueness of the customs business. Meanwhile, the definition given from the Labor Code of the Russian Federation does not cover a number of very important components that are actually included in the customs business. The question of the place and content of customs policy in the structure of customs also remains unclear. And why is customs policy included in the concept of "customs business" at all?

As for the components of the customs business, in addition to those listed above, they should include customs statistics and the maintenance of the commodity nomenclature of foreign economic activity (TNVED), the fight against smuggling and other crimes in the field of customs, as well as violations of customs rules, proceedings on violations of customs regulations, consideration of cases on violations of customs regulations B.N. Gabrichidze, A.G. Chernyavsky "Administrative law" textbook M: "Prospect" 2004. With this approach, a broad understanding of the content of the customs business is provided, especially since the above-mentioned additional elements included in its structure are provided for by the Customs Code itself and are sufficiently detailed and detailed in it.

Taking into account the above, the structure of the customs business can be represented by the following blocks:

1 - customs policy;

2 - movement of goods and vehicles across the customs border (principles);

3 - customs regimes;

4 - customs and tariff regulation;

5 - customs payments (federal customs revenues);

6 - customs clearance;

7 - customs control;

8 - customs statistics and commodity nomenclature of foreign economic activity (TN VED);

9 - smuggling and other crimes in the field of customs;

10 - violations of customs regulations and responsibility for them;

11 - proceedings on cases of violations of customs regulations;

12 - consideration of cases of violations of customs regulations. The allocation of these blocks into relatively independent parts of the customs business is, of course, somewhat arbitrary and may be more differentiated. For example, the inquiry and operational-search activity of the customs authorities can be distinguished into a separate block. On the whole, it reflects an adequate picture of the modern structure of the Russian customs business.

The significance, role and status of each of the above-mentioned constituent parts of the customs business are not the same. However, they are different in nature and goals, in place in the customs system, together they constitute an organic unity, since they serve as a single customs (and broader - internal and external economic) tasks of the Russian Federation.

One cannot but see a serious difference between customs policy, which is the "soul" of customs, and, say, customs clearance or customs control - very important elements of customs, but still subordinate to this policy, serving it. It is also necessary to distinguish between the norms of substantive customs law and the norms of procedural customs law, which regulate the status of certain blocks of the customs business. For example, the issues of smuggling, evasion of customs payments and other crimes in the field of customs are regulated by the norms of substantive criminal law and are highlighted in separate articles of the Labor Code.

The essence of any activity is revealed through the identification of its goals.

Customs has two groups of goals:

First, economic. Among them are purely fiscal ones, i.e. replenishment of the revenue side of the country's budget, and regulatory. The customs mechanism exerts its regulatory effect on the economy through customs tariffs (by methods of indirect guidance), as well as prohibitions, restrictions, licensing, quotas for exports and imports (by methods of direct administrative guidance).

Such regulation is designed to:

a) stimulate the development of the national economy;

b) protect the Russian market;

c) attract foreign investment;

d) ensure the fulfillment of obligations to other states, international unions, as well as contribute to the achievement of other goals determined by the Federal Assembly, the President and the Government of the Russian Federation.

Secondly, protective, i.e. ensuring the national security of the country, including economic, sanitary and epidemiological, public order, public health, cultural values. All the main components of the customs business serve these purposes: customs service, customs activity, customs law, customs policy and ideology using legal norms, customs procedures, as well as combating smuggling and other offenses.

Customs, protection and protection of the customs territory and customs borders are a constant factor in government activity, which also requires a corresponding stable legislation. Customs legislation has always contained a large number of rules governing the procedure for moving goods and other items across the customs border. The regulation of customs has always been in the competence of the state, all-Union bodies, just as now it belongs to the jurisdiction of the federal bodies of the Russian Federation.

By their sectoral affiliation, the norms of customs legislation are almost entirely administrative and legal norms, which is due to the very nature of customs activities, the core of which is administrative control. Only certain norms relate to other branches of law - civil law(on compensation for harm), to criminal law (on criminal liability for violation of customs rules). Therefore, between customs law as an institution of administrative law and a set of rules governing the activities of the department in question, one cannot put an equal sign. In the new Customs Code, the Legislator does not disclose administrative responsibility for offenses in the field of customs, having dedicated chapter 16 of the Administrative Code to them.

Thus, the legal basis of customs business consists of three parts:

1) norms of customs law;

2) general norms of administrative law;

3) the norms of other industries.

The norms of the second and third groups are not included in the institution of customs law and are applied in cases where the relevant relations are not regulated by customs regulations, i.e. when they do not need special legal regulation.

The sources of customs law are acts of federal legislative and executive bodies state power. In terms of content, they can be divided into those that only provide for the norms of this institution, for example, the Law on the Customs Tariff, and mixed ones. The latter may contain the norms of various legal institutions and even industries - including the laws of the Russian Federation on the state border, on the import and export of cultural property, on currency regulation and currency control, and on excise taxes.

Depending on the authorities that issued the acts, and therefore on their legal force, five types of sources are distinguished:

1) the laws of the Russian Federation;

2) decrees of the President of the Russian Federation;

3) decrees of the Government of the Russian Federation;

4) acts of the State Customs Committee, FCS;

5) joint acts of the FCS (SCC) and other central executive bodies (FSNP, FSB, Ministry of Internal Affairs, etc.).

However, this list would be incomplete if the still valid acts of the former bodies of the USSR (union acts) were not mentioned. Although their number is rapidly decreasing, on issues that have not yet been regulated by Russian law, union norms apply, if they do not contradict Russian ones. "If an international treaty of the Russian Federation establishes rules other than those provided for by this code and other acts of the legislation of the Russian Federation on customs business," says article 6 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation, then the rules of the international treaty apply. "

Therefore, formally, we can talk about three groups of sources of customs law:

- Russian;

- allied;

- and international.

Taking into account this specificity of customs legislation, its main source was and remains the Customs Code adopted on April 25, 2003.

The current Code imposes increased (in comparison with the old version) requirements for regulations issued by customs authorities. states that such an act:

1.1 may be issued only if it is expressly provided for in acts of customs legislation and other legal acts of the Russian Federation;

1.2 is subject to mandatory registration with the Ministry of Justice of the Russian Federation and official publication;

1.3 is subject to appeal to the arbitration court;

1.4 should not contradict the Labor Code of the Russian Federation and other acts of customs legislation;

1.5 should be clear (unambiguous). Article 5 of the Customs Code of the Russian Federation

It should be noted that in addition to the general rules enshrined in the Customs Code, the procedure established by the Government of the Russian Federation for the movement of goods by individuals across the customs border of the Russian Federation that are not intended for production or other commercial activities is of great importance for the legal regulation of customs. A number of issues related to the implementation of customs policy are addressed in the regulatory legal acts of the FCS of Russia, which are binding on all ministries, departments, enterprises, organizations, officials and citizens. For example, the Order of the State Customs Committee of the Russian Federation N 1444 "On the list of documents and information required for the declaration and customs control of nuclear materials and radioactive substances." Order of the State Customs Committee of the Russian Federation of December 11, 2003 N 1444 "On the list of documents and information required for the declaration and customs control of nuclear materials and radioactive substances" According to letter State Customs Committee of the Russian Federation of February 6, 2004 N 14-10 / 4275, the order entered into force on April 21, 2004 " Russian newspaper"dated January 22, 2004 N 9,

Thus, there are three main directions in the content of the customs legislation:

a) organization and maintenance of the customs regime (control, other customs operations);

b) organization of state administration of customs affairs;

c) organization and regulation of the activities of personnel - civil service in the customs authorities.

All these issues are currently within the competence of the highest bodies of state power - according to Art. 71 of the Constitution, item "g", customs regulation is attributed to the jurisdiction of the Russian Federation, without the participation of its constituent entities of the Russian Federation in this matter.

We examined the concepts: customs and customs law, its relationship with administrative law, named the sources of customs law.

2. Functions and powers of customs authorities

The functions of the customs authorities represent the main areas of activity of the customs authorities. From this point of view, the importance of the customs authorities from the standpoint of economic development RF and the growth of trade between Russia and foreign countries... The role of customs authorities in the foreign policy of the Russian Federation determines a special "set" of functions of customs authorities, but at the same time, the relationship with the implementation of the most important socio-economic and foreign policy programs does not limit the variety of functions of customs authorities.

The customs bodies of the Russian Federation are federal executive bodies, links of the state administration system. The customs authorities are classified as executive authorities in accordance with the structure of federal executive authorities approved by the decree of the President of the Russian Federation dated March 9, 2004. Decree of the President of the Russian Federation of March 9, 2004 No. 314 "On the system and structure of federal executive bodies" SZ RF of March 15, 2004 No. 11, article 945 Based on the understanding of the executive power as an activity consisting in the practical organization and implementation of norms and the provisions of the Constitution, federal laws and other norms and provisions of the Constitution, federal laws and other legal acts, it can be said that the customs authorities, as executive bodies, carry out executive and administrative activities in the field of customs.

The executive activity of these bodies consists in the daily practical organization and implementation of customs.

The customs authorities, using various forms and methods, exercise their functions and powers in the field of organizing the movement of goods and vehicles across the customs border; collection of customs payments; customs clearance and control, etc. These areas are the main ones in the activities of the customs authorities.

Note that in these areas of activity, the customs authorities act as administrative and executive bodies.

The customs authorities carry out both administrative and executive-organizational activities. Both of these activities are closely interrelated and together make up a single whole. At the same time, the administrative activity of the customs authorities has its own characteristics, the most important of which is its normative nature.

It manifests itself in the adoption of the relevant legal acts by the customs authorities. Executive (organizational and executive) activities can be carried out in other forms. These are, in particular, workshops of employees of departments, divisions and sectors of the customs authorities; meetings for exchange of experience and in the process of retraining of customs personnel; scientific and methodological, practical conferences and seminars for customs officials.

An important distinguishing feature of the customs authorities is that current legislation they are classified as law enforcement agencies. This characteristic requires additional explanation. V broad sense the words of any government agency can be considered law enforcement. However, there is and is generally accepted a narrower understanding of the term "law enforcement agencies": they usually include judicial and prosecutorial bodies, the legal profession, notaries, internal affairs bodies, etc. more details: B.N. Gabrichidze and other law enforcement agencies of the Russian Federation. M „2002. S. 8-96.

The law enforcement nature of the activities of customs authorities is largely due to the very structure of customs, as well as the fact that all the main tasks and powers in the field of customs are carried out by the customs authorities taking into account the interests of the country, strengthening, its economic sovereignty and economic security.

Since both general and specific tasks and functions of customs authorities are determined in customs legislation, the core of which is the Customs Code, it is appropriate in this case to refer to its preamble: "The Code is aimed at protecting the economic sovereignty and economic security of the Russian Federation ... ensuring the protection of the rights of citizens, business entities and government bodies and their observance of duties in the field of customs ". In this case, state bodies are understood as a wide range of state bodies (and not just customs authorities), which, according to the legislation, bear duties in the field of customs. It can be concluded that the customs business itself and the customs authorities from the outset, due to the specific nature and structure of the customs business, are law enforcement in nature and in most cases act precisely in this capacity.

The law enforcement nature of the activities of customs authorities also has more specific specific manifestations, which are clearly visible in the analysis of the structure of the customs business, as well as a number of individual powers of these authorities. Article 408 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation The complex nature of the customs business predetermines the presence of heterogeneous elements in it, including law enforcement, and the corresponding activities of the customs authorities. In accordance with these articles, the customs authorities are the bodies of inquiry in cases of smuggling and for a number of other crimes in the field of customs (Articles 151, 157 of the Criminal Procedure Code of the Russian Federation), in cases determined by the Labor Code, these bodies carry out operational-search activities.

The code establishes two objectives for the implementation of operational-search activities by the customs authorities:

1) detection, prevention, suppression and disclosure of crimes, the production of urgent investigative actions and inquiries for which the criminal procedural legislation of the Russian Federation is referred to the jurisdiction of customs authorities (Articles 151, 157 of the Criminal Procedure Code of the Russian Federation), the identification and establishment of persons preparing them, committing or committing ;

2) ensuring your own safety.

To achieve these goals, the customs authorities have the right to carry out operational-search measures, the list of which is enshrined in Article 6 of the Federal Law "On Operational-Investigative Activities" and is exhaustive: making inquiries, collecting samples for comparative research; test purchase; research of objects and documents; observation; identification of personality; inspection of premises, buildings, structures, terrain and vehicles; control of postal items, telegraph and other messages; wiretapping of telephone conversations; removal of information from technical communication channels; prompt implementation; controlled delivery; operational experiment. The bulk of work in connection with the proceedings on cases of violations of customs rules and their consideration is assigned to the customs authorities and their officials.

In view of the special managing, consolidating and organizing role, the specific nature of the tasks and functions performed by the FCS of Russia, the leading role of this central body in the implementation of the TC and the allocation of its place in the Code itself, as well as the practical organization of its customs activities, we will analyze in more detail its legal status, composition , structure and fundamental issues of the application of the provisions and norms of the Labor Code. Unfortunately, in the Code itself, the status and functions of the Federal Customs Service of Russia are formulated very schematically and succinctly: in essence, there is no detailed description of the legal and functional organization of the FCS.

The Federal Customs Service is a federal executive body that, in accordance with the legislation of the Russian Federation, exercises control and supervision functions in the field of customs, as well as the functions of a currency control agent and special functions to combat smuggling, other crimes and administrative offenses. The Federal Customs Service is under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Economic Development and Trade of the Russian Federation.

Today the Federal Customs Service carries out the following functions: See attachments

issues qualification certificates for customs clearance specialists;

provides metrological support for the activities of customs authorities.

Conclusion

The purpose of the test was achieved, the author carried out a holistic logical study of the organization of state management of customs in Russia.

The tasks have been solved: the general provisions of customs, the structure of the tasks and functions of the customs authorities of Russia, the procedure for their interaction with the Border Guard Service of the FSB of Russia are considered.

According to the provisions submitted to the defense:

According to the first position:

"Customs is an integral part of the executive power system, the principles of which fully apply to it." Customs business, as well as the country's defense, state security, money emission, is included in the sphere of state monopoly, it is only the state apparatus that deals with it. The principles of the customs mechanism are expediency, legality, efficiency, democracy, the unity of the system and economic space, all of them correspond to or follow from the principles of public administration established by the Constitution and laws of the Russian Federation.

For the second position:

“By their branch affiliation, the norms of customs legislation are almost entirely administrative and legal norms” - this is due to the very nature of customs activities, the core of which is administrative control. There is much in common between customs law as an institution of administrative law and a set of rules governing the activities of the department in question regarding the subject of regulation, but an equal sign cannot be put. Persons who have committed a violation of customs rules are liable in accordance with the legislation of the Russian Federation on administrative offenses. "

"The Federal Customs Service is an important executive body interacting with the protection of the State Border"

The Law "On the State Border of the Russian Federation" (Article 27, Clause 4) determines that the customs authorities of the Russian Federation and the FSB of Russia "interact with each other and assist the border authorities and border troops of the FSB of the Russian Federation in protecting the State Border."

The Border Service is obliged - to "transfer" to the customs authorities, and in the absence of customs authorities, to detain those discovered by the border authorities and border troops while performing the tasks assigned to them to protect the State Border within the border territory moved through State border smuggling and other goods, cargo and vehicles illegally transported across the State border ".

For us, as border guards, based on the results of our work, we can draw the following conclusion: close interaction and cooperation determines the success of the tasks performed. Therefore, each of us needs to know and skillfully apply in practice the norms of customs law, as well as generally represent the organization and management of customs affairs in the Russian Federation.

Administrative and legal regulation of the customs business in the Russian Federation can be described as a complex of administrative and legal norms in the customs sphere, the main focus of which is the use of measures of customs regulation of foreign economic activity in the national-state interests, as well as the implementation of customs policy and ensuring control over compliance with the customs legislation of Russia ...

The characteristic of administrative and legal regulation is based on legal support for the use of customs clearance and customs control tools, regulation of trade, participation in the implementation of trade and political tasks to protect the Russian market, stimulate the development of the national economy, participation in international cooperation, etc.

Customs regulation is characterized as an activity to create legal norms aimed at establishing the legal order and conditions for the movement of goods and vehicles across the customs border, collection of customs payments, customs clearance, customs control and the implementation of customs policy in general.

An administrative-legal norm should be understood as certain rules of conduct established by the state, the purpose of which is to regulate social relations that arise, change and cease in the sphere of functioning of the mechanism of executive power or public administration.

Through the prism of the main directions of administrative and legal regulation, two interrelated components that make up its content are identified - customs and customs policy. If the first determines what customs regulation includes and what it should give, then the second - how to implement this regulation, by what means to get the intended result. The characteristic of the components allows you to determine:

  • - customs business of the Russian Federation - the activities of customs authorities carried out in order to ensure control over compliance with customs legislation through the application of methods and procedures of customs regulation determined by the Customs Code of the Russian Federation, and other regulatory legal acts adopted in accordance with it in relation to goods and vehicles transported through customs border.
  • - the customs policy of the Russian Federation is an integral part of the domestic and foreign policy of the state, including the development and application on a legal basis of a system of tariff and non-tariff measures of customs regulation of foreign economic activity in the national-state interests.

There are a number of interpretations of customs regulation, which can be grouped into four blocks: organizational, legal, economic and control. All blocks are closely interconnected and form a single system of administrative and legal regulation of customs.

The organizational block of administrative and legal regulation of customs is the state institutions of the legislative and executive power of the Russian Federation, in which it is developed, determined and implemented.

Thus, by Article 71 of the Constitution of the Russian Federation, customs regulation falls under the jurisdiction of the Russian Federation.

The legal block of administrative and legal regulation of the customs business, reflecting its essence and the most important constitutive principle, focuses on disclosing its main provisions through actions aimed at using state power in the field of foreign economic activity regulation through customs activities. In this form, customs regulation is interpreted as: a system or a set of measures to implement the established rules for regulating foreign economic activity, and, above all, of an administrative-power character; orderliness and regulation in this area through the regulatory framework, etc.

The legal and regulatory framework for customs regulation consists of two sources - formal and institutional, which are external forms expressions of administrative and legal norms in the theory of customs. In practical terms, this refers to the legal acts of various state bodies containing this kind of legal norms, i.e. regulations. Among them are normative acts of legislative bodies, executive bodies, as well as various kinds, rules, regulations, statutes, agreements, etc. approved by these bodies.

The formal sources in the customs business include classical sources, which include the Laws of the Russian Federation, Decrees of the President of the Russian Federation, Resolutions of the Government of the Russian Federation, regulations of the State Customs Committee of Russia, international conventions (treaties, agreements, etc.).

Institutional sources in customs are subdivided into government agencies and professional organizations.

TO government agencies include legislative and executive bodies; judicial branch.

So, on the issues of tariff and non-tariff regulation (for example, the introduction of special taxes, duties and fees, quotas and licensing, certification of products and services, the establishment of bans or restrictions on the import and export of goods, etc.), a large number of ministries of the Russian Federation are involved, and first of all, the customs service of the Russian Federation.

Professional organizations include national or professional chambers of commerce, the International Chamber of Commerce, and International Professional Associations. These organizations tend to develop general rules or conditions of foreign trade, which are advisory in nature. For example, the International Chamber of Commerce has systematized the basic terms and conditions of contracts of purchase and sale, which are known as "INCOTERMS". This set of rules is applied in foreign trade and defines the basic conditions for the delivery of goods, which establish the obligations of the seller and the buyer to deliver the goods to their destination, and also distribute the costs of transporting the goods between them.

The economic block of administrative and legal regulation of customs is associated, first of all, with the implementation of the foreign and domestic economic policy of the Russian Federation, based on protectionism, free trade or a harmonious combination of the two previous directions.

Depending on the choice of one direction or another in the degree of its impact, various measures of economic policy are applied in the practice of customs, namely: customs regimes, non-tariff regulation, customs tariff regulation, etc. For example, the movement of goods and vehicles across the customs border of the Russian Federation is produced in accordance with the declared customs regimes. The concept of the customs regime is used to designate a special system of measures and a set of methods (techniques) that ensure the comprehensive application of customs regulation tools, with the help of which the state influence on the development of foreign economic relations is carried out. The Customs Code establishes the following customs regimes: 1) release for free circulation; 2) re-import; 3) transit; 4) customs warehouse: 5) duty-free shop; 6) processing in the customs territory; 7) processing under customs control; 8) temporary import (export); 9) free customs zone; 10) free warehouse; 11) processing outside the customs territory; 12) export; 13) re-export; 14) destruction of goods; 15) refusal in favor of the state. In the period 1993-2001. The Government of the Russian Federation in accordance with Art. 24 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation, additional customs regimes were established: export of goods for representative offices of the Russian Federation abroad, export of certain goods to the former republics of the USSR, movement of supplies, etc. Depending on the role and place of customs regimes, they can be conditionally divided into two groups.

The first is characterized by a general, without any exceptions and restrictions, the procedure for the use of customs means and methods of regulation. From an economic point of view, the customs regimes of this group act as relatively independent and completed commercial operations (for example, release for free circulation, export, re-import, re-export, etc.).

The second group consists of the so-called economic customs regimes (for example: transit, customs warehouse, duty-free shop, processing on (outside) the customs territory, temporary import (export), free customs zone, etc.), characterized by more flexible use of customs regulation tools and acting as a kind of result of their adaptation to the different needs of foreign economic activity participants. These modes provide them with predefined economic conclusions and advantages in the form of full or partial exemption from customs payments, non-application of economic policy measures (quantitative restrictions, licensing, etc.).

An important element of customs regulation of foreign economic activity is non-tariff regulation. In the practice of customs, non-tariff regulation measures are, in essence, administrative and legal measures of customs regulation of foreign economic activity. In world practice, it is customary to refer to non-tariff administrative measures: prohibition of imports; quantitative restrictions (individual, tariff, seasonal, global quotas), licensing (one-time individual licenses, general licenses, the issuance of licenses for the import of goods secured by government funding, etc.); the so-called "voluntary" restriction (self-restriction) of exports, etc.

Non-tariff restrictions of an economic nature include: anti-dumping measures; various types of taxation (value added tax on the importer, turnover or sales tax, excise duties, special import duties, taxes); measures of a monetary and financial nature (tax on operations with foreign currency, a system of prepayment of duties by depositing funds on the deposit of the customs authority, etc.).

Technical and other special requirements include: national standards, product certification systems; requirements established by sanitary-veterinary, health and agricultural authorities; environmental requirements; requirements for packaging, labeling and transportation of goods, etc.

Customs and tariff regulation is the most laborious process in the customs business and includes several interrelated operations: determination of customs payments; determination of the customs value of goods; determination of the country of origin of goods and tariff benefits.

Legality is one of the basic principles of the customs service. This principle means that all activities of the customs authorities and their officials must be carried out on the basis of strict and unswerving compliance with the requirements of the current Russian legislation. The rule of law, as a sign of legality in the activities of the customs service of the Russian Federation, means that all forms and methods of exercising by the customs authorities of their competence must be carried out in strict accordance with the Constitution of the Russian Federation and federal laws. Legal acts on customs regulation issued by the customs authorities within their competence should not go beyond the law. The unity of the enforcement of customs legislation is one of the essential signs legality in the activities of customs authorities.

The main task of control in the implementation of customs regulation is to identify deviations from the parameters set by the customs authorities for the implementation of their functions, and to reveal the reasons for their giving rise, as well as positive aspects, the further development of which can serve to significantly increase the activities of the entire customs service of the Russian Federation.

Control in the implementation of administrative and legal regulation of the customs business can be distinguished as external and as internal:

  • - control by the President of the Russian Federation, the Government of the Russian Federation and the State Duma of the Russian Federation, which is based on Art. Art. 7, 8 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation, which sets out the basic principles of managing the customs affairs of the Russian Federation;
  • - control of the competent state authorities, such as the constitutional, supreme, arbitration courts and courts of general jurisdiction, the Chamber of Accounts, the state tax office and others, acting in accordance with the legislation of the Russian Federation;
  • - prosecutor's control, which is based on Art. Art. 418, 419 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation, in the case when the consideration of decisions, actions or inaction of the customs authority of the Russian Federation and their officials is carried out in connection with the protest of the prosecutor, as well as in the order of control;
  • - control by participants in foreign economic activity is based on Section XIII of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation, which provides in detail the general provision (law, procedure) on appealing against decisions of customs authorities;
  • - control by international treaties, which is based on Art. 6 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation, which emphasizes the priority of the rules established by international agreements if they differ from customs or other acts of the legislation of the Russian Federation;
  • - control, carried out by the customs authorities, over the movement of goods and vehicles across the customs border of the Russian Federation.
