- Abstract
Customs authorities have a unique roll to facilitate and expedite trade on one hand, and on the other hand to fulfill its obligations in terms of safety and protection of cross-border movement of goods. In light of the increasing terrorist threats and migrant crises, the state requires of its Customs authority economic and physical protection, but the other participants in international trade require uniformity, predictability, transparency and efficiency of the customs procedure. In this complex constellation, the role of the Customs is to provide facilitation of international trade by accelerating and simplifying customs procedures, while identifying those who pose a security threat at the same time. This paper analyzes linkages between security and trade facilitation, and the main question about finding a balance between facilitation and enforcement. The solution is best found in the applying of the risk management approach in every day work of the Customs administrations. Statistical data's will be used to present the implementation of the risk management by Customs administration of the Republic of Macedonia.
