In September 2018, the World Customs Organization (WCO) held the first meeting of the newly created working group to process the comprehensive review of Revised Kyoto Convention (RKC).

The working group is charged with reviewing the legal text of the RKC and exploring various options, such as “future proofing” it. In the September meeting, the working group agreed that the WCO should ensure an all-inclusive approach to the review.

On November 9, 2018, the WCO will hold a global conference on the Comprehensive Review of the RKC to further discuss the development of a “customs of the future” model.

To register for the conference contact the WCO RKC team at facilitation@wcoomd.org .
