Shavkat Mirziyoyev visited the Customs Clearance Center during a working trip to Tashkent, the presidential press service reported.

The core of the new complex is a data processing center equipped with modern secure servers. According to official data, their capacity has increased tenfold, which has allowed the speed of communication channels to be increased five times and the processing time to be halved.

The center processes requests received by the Customs Committee call center by phone 1108 and on its website.

Operational structures study data from 50 customs information systems, as well as the systems of the WCO and more than 30 foreign departments. The complex also houses a central customs laboratory.

Digitalization has made it possible to reduce the average customs clearance time to 30 minutes, the report says. For comparison, in 2017 the process took 5 hours and 42 minutes.
