Core Principles of CBM
Copyright © 2016, World Customs Organization 8
•Eliminates duplications in info requirements – each information only needs to be submitted once
•Allows all personnel have the info they need to do their work effectively
Shared Information
•Reduces costs through sharing resources between different agencies – NII equipment, inspection bays, offices, IT systems
•Co-location allows everyone to work “under one roof”, enhancing communication and availability
Shared Resource
•Agencies empowered to assist each other. E.g. customs empowered to conduct checks on behalf of CBRAs, in a joint border post, customs from either country can clear imports / exports
Shared Work
•Common sense of purpose and vision among all agencies at the border.
•Facilitation coordinated between all agencies, controls determined holistically
Shared Responsibilities
