Vsa pomoč po tem sporazumu je dana v skladu z notranjim pravom zaprošene pogodbenice.

1. Na zaprosilo organa prosilca mu zaprošeni organ priskrbi vse ustrezne podatke, ki mu omogočijo, da zagotovi pravilno uporabo carinske zakonodaje, med drugim tudi podatke o prevozu in odpremi blaga, kraju, kamor je blago namenjeno, o njegovi vrednosti in poreklu ter podatke o storjenih ali načrtovanih dejanjih, s katerimi se krši ali bi se lahko kršila taka zakonodaja. 2. Na zaprosilo organa prosilca ga zaprošeni organ obvesti, ali je bilo blago, izvoženo z ozemlja države ene pogodbenice, pravilno uvoženo na ozemlje države druge pogodbenice, in kadar je primerno, navede carinski postopek, uporabljen za blago. 3. Na zaprosilo organa prosilca zaprošeni organ sprejme potrebne ukrepe za zagotovitev nadzora nad: a) določenimi fizičnimi ali pravnimi osebami, za katere se utemeljeno domneva, da kršijo ali so kršile carinsko zakonodajo na ozemlju države pogodbenice prosilke; b) kraji, kjer se blago skladišči na način, zaradi katerega se utemeljeno sumi, da je namenjeno nezakonitemu uvozu na ozemlje države pogodbenice prosilke; c) gibanjem blaga, za katero organ prosilec sporoči, da bi lahko povzročilo carinski prekršek na ozemlju države pogodbenice prosilke; d) prevoznimi sredstvi, za katera se utemeljeno domneva, da so bila, so ali bi lahko bila uporabljena pri carinskih prekrških, storjenih na ozemlju države pogodbenice prosilke.

Carinski upravi pogodbenic si bosta, če to ni v nasprotju z njunim notranjim pravom, prav tako prizadevali za sodelovanje pri: a) uvajanju, razvijanju ali izboljševanju posebnih programov usposabljanja za svoje osebje; b) vzpostavljanju in vzdrževanju poti za medsebojno komuniciranje, da bi olajšali varno in hitro izmenjavo informacij; c) pospeševanju medsebojnega usklajevanja skupaj z izmenjavo osebja, izvedencev in imenovanjem uradnikov za zvezo; d) proučevanju in preizkušanju nove opreme ali postopkov; e) vseh drugih splošnih upravnih zadevah, pri katerih je občasno potrebno skupno ukrepanje.

Na zaprosilo organa prosilca sprejme zaprošeni organ v skladu s svojo zakonodajo vse potrebne ukrepe za: – pošiljanje vseh dokumentov, – uradna obvestila o vseh odločitvah s področja uporabe tega sporazuma naslovniku, ki prebiva ali je ustanovljen na ozemlju njegove države. V takem primeru se uporablja tretji odstavek 7. člena.

1. Zaprosila po tem sporazumu morajo biti pisna. Zaprosilu morajo biti priloženi dokumenti, potrebni za njegovo obravnavo. Kadar je nujno hitro ukrepanje, se lahko sprejme ustno zaprosilo, ki pa ga je treba takoj pisno potrditi. 2. Zaprosila iz prvega odstavka tega člena vsebujejo te podatke: a) organ prosilec, ki vlaga zaprosilo; b) zaprošeni ukrep; c) predmet zaprosila in razlog zanj; d) zakone, predpise in druge pravne podlage v zvezi s tem; e) kolikor je mogoče natančne in celovite navedbe o fizičnih ali pravnih osebah, na katere se zaprosilo nanaša; f) povzetek ustreznih dejstev, razen v primerih, predvidenih v 6. členu, in g) povezavo med zaprošeno pomočjo in zadevo, na katero se nanaša. 3. Zaprosila je treba predložiti v uradnem jeziku zaprošenega organa ali v angleškem jeziku. 4. a) Pomoč po tem sporazumu se zagotavlja z neposrednimi stiki med carinskima upravama. b) Če zaprošena carinska uprava ni pristojni organ za obravnavo zaprosila, ga mora nemudoma poslati pristojnemu organu, ki v zvezi z njim ukrepa v skladu s svojimi zakonskimi pooblastili, ali pa organ prosilca obvesti o ustreznem postopku, po katerem se je treba ravnati pri takem zaprosilu. 5. Če zaprosilo ne ustreza predpisanim zahtevam, je mogoče zahtevati njegov popravek ali dopolnitev; lahko pa se odredijo previdnostni ukrepi.

1. Zaprošeni organ sprejme vse primerne ukrepe za obravnavo zaprosila in bo po potrebi skušal zagotoviti vse uradne ali sodne ukrepe, potrebne za izpolnitev zaprosila. 2.

Na zaprosilo lahko zaprošeni organ v največji možni meri omogoči uradnim osebam organa prosilca navzočnost na ozemlju države zaprošene pogodbenice, kadar njegove uradne osebe preiskujejo carinske prekrške, ki zanimajo organ prosilca. 4. Organ prosilec je, če tako zahteva, obveščen o času in kraju ukrepanja na podlagi zaprosila, tako da se ukrepi lahko uskladijo. 5. Uradne osebe organa prosilca, ki so pooblaščene za preiskave carinskih prekrškov, lahko zaprosijo, da zaprošeni organ pregleda ustrezne knjige, registre in drugo dokumentacijo ali nosilce podatkov in priskrbi njihove kopije ali da priskrbi vse informacije v zvezi s carinskimi prekrški.

1. Zaprošeni organ sporoči izid poizvedb organu prosilcu v obliki dokumentov, overjenih kopij dokumentov, poročil in podobnega, po potrebi pa tudi ustno. 2. Dokumente iz prvega odstavka tega člena lahko nadomestijo računalniški podatki v kakršni koli obliki z enakim namenom; hkrati je treba dostaviti vse informacije, potrebne za razlago ali uporabo takih računalniških podatkov.

1. Kadar zaprošena pogodbenica meni, da bi bili z izpolnitvijo zaprosila prizadeti njena suverenost, varnost, javni red ali drugi pomembni državni interesi ali bi bila kršena kaka gospodarska, poslovna ali poklicna skrivnost, lahko pomoč zavrne ali jo da le, če so izpolnjeni določeni pogoji ali zahteve. Pomoč lahko prav tako zavrne, če zaprosilo vključuje devizne ali davčne predpise, ki se ne nanašajo na predpise o carinskih dajatvah. 2. Kadar organ prosilec prosi za pomoč, ki je sam ne bi mogel zagotoviti, če bi ga zanjo zaprosili, mora v svojem zaprosilu na to opozoriti. Zaprošeni organ se mora potem odločiti, kako bo odgovoril na tako zaprosilo. 3. Če je pomoč zadržana ali zavrnjena, je treba o tej odločitvi in razlogih zanjo nemudoma uradno obvestiti organ prosilca.

1. Vsaka informacija, sporočena v kakršni koli obliki v skladu s tem sporazumom, je zaupna. Varuje se kot uradna tajnost in je deležna enakega varstva po ustrezni zakonodaji, kot velja za enako vrsto informacij v pogodbenici, ki jo je prejela. 2. Osebne podatke je mogoče poslati, le če je raven osebnega varstva, ki jo zagotavljata zakonodaji pogodbenic, enakovredna.

Kadar so po tem sporazumu izmenjani osebni podatki, carinski upravi pogodbenic zagotovita, da so uporabljeni le za namene, navedene v zaprosilu, in v skladu z vsemi pogoji, ki jih lahko postavi zaprošena pogodbenica. 4. Določbe prvega in drugega odstavka tega člena ne veljajo za informacije v zvezi s kršitvami, ki se nanašajo na mamila in psihotropne snovi. Take informacije je mogoče sporočiti organom pogodbenice prosilke, ki so neposredno vključeni v boj proti nedovoljeni trgovini z mamili.

1. Carinski upravi pogodbenic na zaprosilo priskrbita dokumentacijo v zvezi s prevozom in odpremo blaga z navedbo vrednosti, porekla in kraja, kamor je blago namenjeno. 2.
