Excise and customs import fraud significantly undermine EU financial integrity by exploiting public funds through adaptive transnational schemes. Customs fraud leverages e-commerce growth, employing undervaluation and false origin declarations, often enabled by document manipulation and misuse of legal entities. Excise fraud is driven by tax disparities and high duties, evident in the illicit production of counterfeit tobacco products.
