On March 26, 2026, the Council and the European Parliament reached an agreement on the revision of the Union Customs Code (MUCC)[AA1.1][AA1.2][Ev1.3], proposed by the Commission on May 17, 2023 (COD 2023/0156).
With the MUCC, the European Union (EU) moves toward a fully digitalized filing and control framework for customs matters. The most discussed changes the MUCC will introduce are the e-commerce package, the establishment of the EU Customs Data Hub, which will overhaul the method of customs filings, and the European Customs Authority, to be established in Lille, which will oversee the Data Hub and harmonize risk assessment.
While important, other notable changes may significantly impact businesses trading with and in the EU.
Below, we provide a summary of some of these other key changes.
