International standards and scientific approaches to managing the supply chain of goods through customs control in world experience

Abstract

This article provides a comprehensive analysis of international standards, conventions, and leading scientific approaches to managing commodity supply chains through customs control within the framework of the modern global economy. The study delineates the essence and significance of the World Customs Organization's SAFE Framework standards, the World Trade Organization's Trade Facilitation Agreement, UNECE recommendations, and the institutions of Authorized Economic Operators. Furthermore, it scientifically and methodologically substantiates the interrelation of the Kyoto, Istanbul, and TIR conventions—which constitute the cornerstone of international customs law—and evaluates their impact on the sustainability of the supply chain. The paper conducts a comparative analysis of 8 key scientific approaches in the field, highlights their potential opportunities and challenges in modernizing the customs system of Uzbekistan, and proposes a new integrated approach model.
