  8. CustomsAdministration One of the most important elements that have theessential influence on theorganization of the future Polish Customs Administrationis informatization. The PolishCustoms Administration has achieved recently asignificant progress in computerization of customs administration and interconnectivity of thecustoms IT systems. These tools will alsoplay a supporting role in the context of border controls.We treat this issue with the highestpriority and the utmost care. The Polish CustomsAdministration is currently working on the following ITsystems.

  9. DeclarationProcessing System • CELINA system is not connected with the EU IT systems. It supports and simplifies processing of customs declarations. The system operates in all Polish customs offices and branches. • Celina Has been originally designed to serve as declaration entry system that would enable Traders to submit declarations in electronic form instead of paper and thus eliminate manual keying data to ZEFIR system.

  10. „Celina” This is the key system. The system has successfully passed in March 2003through The first stage of implementation, in fact ahead of the Planneddeadline. Thesystem is now implemented and operational in 20 locations. Alltraders, who aretechnically prepared todo so, submit customs declarationselectronically. Onaverage this already refers today to more than 80-90% of declarations(depending on particular location).

  11. The second stage of implementationcurrently under realization, will cover 94locations altogether, includingall customs offices, as well as branches and locations of key importanceForcustoms operations after Poland’s accession to the European Union,Locatedmainly on our eastern and northern border. The third and finalstage of the rollout will cover all remaining locations that will stilloperate after structural changeimplemented due to the accession. It isforeseen that full exploitation will start atthe end of the year. It is alsoplanned thatthere will be an interface betweenNCTS and CELINAsystem. According to thelast decisions INTRASTAT statisticalsubsystemwill be included in CELINA system.

  12. Objectives • Streamlining the process of declarations submitting by the business entities. • Collecting possibly broad scope of information on declaration by electronic means and transferring the information to other systems. • Speeding up declarations processing in customs units. • Automating selection process of declarations for detailed control, based on dynamically defined rules (risk analysis profile).

  13. Integrated Customs Duty and Tax System The main functionality of the ICDTS system is located in the operational layer. At present this layer comprises 5 systems: • DeclarationProcessing System Celina, • Accounting and Duty Clearing System ZEFIR, • Transit System –NCTS, • EU Internal Trade StatisticsSystem –Intrastat, • TariffQuotaMaintenanceandManagementSystem –TQS.
