Chair in Customs Law 01/01/2025 - 31/12/2025

Abstract

The Belgian customs administration is a key actor within Europe and makes an essential contribution to the Belgian economy. It also strengthens the competitiveness of Belgian seaports and airports, as well as logistics hubs. The Interuniversity Chair in Customs Law facilitates academic research into the customs law and sanction policy of Belgium and Luxembourg, which have applied the same regulations since 1921. The Chair primarily provides scientific support to the multidisciplinary commission for the revision of the sanction policy on customs and excise, which was established in May 2024 at the request of the Minister of Finance. The research activities within the Chair are intended to result in proposals for reform of the existing regulations. In addition, other customs law issues may also become the subject of specific research.
