Recital 8
(8) The introduction of the e-Customs in 2011, by which documents supporting imports and exports are no longer kept by the customs administrations but by the economic operators, has led to delays in the conduct of European Anti-fraud Office (OLAF) investigations in the customs area, as OLAF needs the intermediation of these administrations to obtain such documents. Moreover, the 3-year limitation period applicable to customs documents held by the administration, puts additional constraints to the successful conduct of investigations. In order to accelerate the conduct of investigations in the area of customs the Commission should therefore, in certain circumstances and following prior notification to the Member States, have the right to request documents supporting import and export declarations directly from the economic operators concerned. These economic operators should be obliged to provide the Commission with the requested documents.
