16 Oct 2025 EEC held seminar on using digital technologies at checkpoints On October 16, the EEC headquarters hosted an international seminar "Smart Checkpoints. Digitalization of Customs Authorities in the Eurasian Economic Union Countries" chaired by Ruslan Davydov, Minister in charge of Customs Cooperation of the Eurasian Economic Commission. The event was attended by representatives of international organizations, customs services of the EAEU States and the Republic of Uzbekistan, operators tracking shipments with the use of navigation seals, as well as businesses and business associations. The seminar participants discussed modern technologies and solutions aimed at increasing the capacity of checkpoints at the customs border, international cooperation and using best global practices. "New trends such as the use of the Internet of Things, big data, artificial intelligence and creation of smart checkpoints open up new horizons for customs services of the EAEU Member States. These innovations allow accelerating the movement of goods across the border by helping bona fide and law-abiding foreign traders and simultaneously improving the quality and efficiency of customs control," Ruslan Davydov stressed. The head of the EEC Customs Unit reminded that the Commission is vested with the competence to approve model requirements for arranging and equipping checkpoints at the customs border of the Union. Currently, an active work is underway to update the existing requirements including in the light of the need to use the above mentioned advanced technologies. "Our neighbors go the same way, as the whole world does. Automation of control procedures is a mutually beneficial process both for states and private players that will ultimately lead to improved competitiveness of our Union," Ruslan Davydov pointed out.
