customs policy

The article is devoted to the study of the essence and significance of customs regulation as an indicator of a country’s economic development. It identifies the relationship between the effectiveness of customs policy and the growth of the state budget, economic development, and the welfare of the population. Using correlation-regression analysis, the study models the impact of customs instruments – exports, imports, and customs payments – on the country’s gross domestic product (GDP).

Interaction with customs authorities is a crucial component of successful foreign economic activity, especially for companies involved in regular import operations. The efficiency of such interaction directly influences the speed, cost, and reliability of international trade processes. Therefore, the goal of this study is to analyze and improve the mechanisms of customs interaction in the context of the activities of LLC ‘Lviv Auto Hub’ – a company engaged in systematic import of vehicles into Ukraine.
