One of the major problems is high customs and logistics transaction expenses. They account for up to 40 to 70 per cent of the final price of goods according to various calculations. That is despite active application of innovative technologies in customs activities and efforts by the Government of the Russian Federation related to the improvement of customs administration: development of the Road Map, key indicators of the development of international economic activities. All of the above confirms the need for further research, development, and adaptation of logistics toolset when carrying out customs clearance and control operations.
