The conference on "Undervaluation and Statistical Data in EU Customs Law: Member States" brings together leading experts from academia, regulatory bodies, and customs authorities to explore critical issues in the field of customs undervaluation. The event will begin with a welcome address and introduction by Giangiacomo D’Angelo (University of Bologna), setting the stage for a series of focused presentations.

Participants will gain in-depth insights into country-specific challenges and practices, with sessions covering:

The Netherlands: An analysis of customs undervaluation and data methodology by Martijn Schippers and Walter De Wit (Erasmus University Rotterdam).

In addition, a dedicated session led by Vincenzo Carbone (UNINT University of Rome) will address the impact of recent EU jurisprudence on customs undervaluation practices, offering critical legal perspectives on evolving regulatory standards. The role of OLAF in mitigating undervaluation issues will also be discussed by Diego Modonesi (European Commission, OLAF), followed by valuable insights from the Italian Customs Authority.

The conference will conclude with a final discussion, providing an interactive platform for all participants to debate and synthesize the key themes addressed during the sessions.

This event promises to be a pivotal forum for understanding and advancing the discourse on customs undervaluation and the effective use of statistical data within the framework of EU customs law.
