Attention is paid to the signs of the risks associated with the customs clearance of the goods transferred across the customs border of Ukraine within the activity sphere of Odessa Customs of the SFS which are the subject matter of the organizational and practical measures employed within the frame of the special (surveillance) operation “Bastion”. Based on the analysis of the current legislation of Ukraine concerning the customs affairs, the algorithm for carrying out the special (surveillance) operation “Bastion” was developed within the frame of the state customs affairs. It was established that within the frame of the special (surveillance) operation “Bastion” the exclusive right to carry out the organizational and practical measures is entrusted to the customs division of the State Fiscal Service of Ukraine. In doing so, the interaction mechanism in localities between the customs division of the State Fiscal Service of Ukraine and the tax militia within the frame of the special (surveillance) operation “Bastion” aimed at detection of criminal and other offences in the taxation or customs spheres is improperly adapted to the current legal requirements. It was concluded that with due account of specificity of the organizational and practical measures (operational procedures) of the special (surveillance) operation “Bastion”, the legal regulation of the indicated issue requires substantial improvements of the legislation of Ukraine concerning the state customs affairs.
