What is GNC?

Global Nexus Customs (GNC) is a voluntary arrangement facilitating seamless information exchange between Customs authorities worldwide. By transitioning from individual negotiation methods to a standardized approach, GNC leverages existing WCO instruments to create Utility Blocks for efficient data sharing. Utility Blocks, based on business rules and standards, cater to specific Customs needs in areas like AEO, valuation fraud, and air cargo security. Members collaborate using templates and protocols, with an overarching architecture and legal framework ensuring continuity. GNC's self-financing model and governance model forecast costs and benefits. The initiative envisions growth with other entities by 2028, following a Proof-of-Concept phase ending 2015.

  1. What is GNC? The voluntary arrangement between two or more Members for a seamless exchange ofcross border information at a Customs to Customs level using a standardized approach based on existing WCO instruments

  2. How will GNC be achieved? By gradually moving away from the current individually hand-crafted method for negotiating International Agreements and using a disciplined and common methodology to industrialize the process

  3. What is GNC based on? It capitalizes on the WCO strength of producing Standards, which are supported by Protocols and Guidelines so that Members can develop re-usable Utility Blocks delivering simplesolutions for sharing information with key trading partners in line with Members’ priorities

  4. Definition of Utility Blocks Utility block could be defined as “a functional subset of GNC offering a tangible value proposition to Customs administrations by meeting specific needs through the sharing of information.” • Utility blocks are designed based on • Business rules, Protocols, Standards and Guidelines. • Examples: AEO, Valuation Fraud, Trade Recovery, Air Cargo Security, Origin Fraud…any area of Customs business

  5. How is a Utility Block produced? Using a Template, and the GNC Protocols, Standards and Guidelines at least two Members take a specific part of the Customs Business and describe what is needed for information exchange, including the reasons for doing so, listing the specific data elements required, the necessary Communications mechanisms, and finally, the IT message specifications.

  6. The Utility Block

  7. What else is involved? There is an overarching GNC Architecture and Business Process Model. a Legal Toolbox describes the GNC impact on international agreements. At inception, Capacity Building was included. A description of the self-financing nature of GNC, and a simulation of costs and benefits appears in the Governance model.

  8. What next? We move to a Proof-of-Concept phase ending about 2015. The long term vision runs to 2028. On the initiative of Members, GNC can grow to include: other Government Agencies, the Private Sector, more modern methods of Communication
