Since the entry into force of Council Regulation (EEC)
No 386/90 (1) a number of Member States have reor-
ganised their customs services leading to a significant
reduction in the number of customs offices. The intro-

of
the customs office of export as the basis for the
application of checking rates.

the
efficient allocation of checks to the sectors or exporters
where they should be prioritised is hindered by the
requirement to apply minimum checking rates at the
level of the customs office of export. Therefore, in the
interests of efficiency and simplicity and according to the

principle of shared management, those Member States
applying risk analysis in conformity with Community
