Abstract

The article is devoted to the use of electronic document management in international transportation by various modes of transport. The study provides a brief analysis of the provisions of international conventions, as well as regulations developed by industry-specific international organizations. The current level of development of digital technologies allows professional participants in the international transportation market to create uniform technological standards and platforms for the use of electronic transport documents, but the difficulties of harmonizing international conventions with the norms of national, in particular, customs and tax legislation, make it impossible to legally use electronic documents. It is concluded that the digitalization of custom is not possible without a uniformly established and rigidly fixed form of a bill of lading. Currently, the sea waybill is quite widely used, the fact of which is not fixed by law. A similar regulation related to the use of an electronic bill of lading is not foreseen in the near future. The process of commodity circulation may be stopped due to the unpreparedness of the tax authorities to introduce electronic document management.
