March 2005, SNB-REACT started its activities in Lithuania.  On 1 January 2006, we merged all activities in the Batlic states and coordination and management is now done from the Lithuanian office.
The objective of our operations in the Baltics  is
- to follow up customs actions, assist them with all practical issues related to the bordermeasures.
Customs enforcement in The Baltic States is pretty simple; the simplified procedure in the EU Regulation of article 11 is being applied. This means that through quick settlements cases can be resolved easily. For storage and destruction of goods, the enforcement authorities often request the support from rights owners. SNB-REACT is supporting its members in this respect

The police actions have come off the ground in Lithuania in 2005; police actions in Estonis and Latvia are common practice and cooperation is good.
