In 2017, CONICQ promoted a seminar in Brasília, whose main objective was to bring together different areas of government that will contribute to the implementation of the measures provided for in the Protocol once the process of ratification of Brazils accession is completed. To this end, the seminar was attended by representatives from different sectors such as: Ministry of Finance (Operational Coordination of Surveillance and Repression of Smuggling and Relocation, and General Coordination of Inspection of the Federal Revenue Service of Brazil), Ministry of Justice and the Federal Highway Police), the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (Division of Social Issues and Division to Combat Transnational Illicit Trade), ANVISA (General Management of Tobacco Products), the International Advisory Office of the Ministry of Health, the Center for Tobacco Studies and Health Cetab / Ensp / Fiocruz, of the Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock and Food Supply (MAPA), Pan American Health Organization (PAHO), INCA (Population Research Division, Tobacco Control Division, International Cooperation, and the Executive Secretariat of CONICQ), the ACT Health Promotion, The Union, tobacco use in São Paulo and Acre, and the State Sanitary Surveillance of Mato Grosso do Sul. |

Actualmente, el Programa de Control de Tabaco del Ministerio de Salud intentó implementar el sistema de trazabilidad para productos de tabaco, en conjunto con otra empresa estatal, el cual pretende contar con un sistema que permita detectar las prácticas ilegales de comercialización de cigarrillos, pero la industria tabacalera y las cámaras empresariales han hecho presión para evitar que se instale, por lo que por orden de la ministra de salud el proyecto se mantiene en stand by.

De acuerdo al Servicio Nacional de Aduana del Ecuador (SENAE), en el ámbito de la frontera terrestre, constituye delito de contrabando la descarga, venta y acopio en la zona de libre tránsito, de cantidades comerciales de mercancías extranjeras que no se han sometido al cumplimiento de las formalidades aduaneras.
En caso de viajeros mayores de 18 años de edad que ingresan por las fronteras terrestre, es permitido el ingreso máximo 3 cajetillas de cigarrillos;
De acuerdo a las atribuciones de la Dirección Nacional de Intervención (DNI) en coordinación con la Unidad de Vigilancia Aduanera (UVA) del Servicio Nacional de Aduanas del Ecuador (UVA), dentro de sus objetivos se encuentra programado el control a este tipo de mercancías “productos de tabaco” y evitar el tráfico de ilícito de esta clase de mercancías.
Para efectos sancionatorios por contrabando, se considera la siguiente normativa en el cual expresa el respectivo procedimiento.
Resolución Nro. SENAE-DGN-2015-0051-RE “Lineamientos para Regularizar la Mercancía Aprehendida en Zona Secundaria Respecto de la cual se ha Iniciado un Proceso de Contravención Administrativa”.
Resolución Nro. SENAE-DGN-2013-0361-RE “Generalidades del Régimen Transfronterizo".
Para el intercambio de información entre autoridades aduaneras, tributarias y otras autoridades, el Servicio Nacional de Aduanas del Ecuador (SENAE) realiza intercambio de información con el SRI, la Agencia Nacional de Tránsito (ANT), la Dirección Nacional de Registro de Datos Públicos (DINARDAP), el Ministerio de Comercio Exterior, entre otros.
De acuerdo a la normativa aduanera, se consideran como mercancías no aptas para ser subastadas las siguientes:
Mercancías de prohibida importación
Mercancías que vulneren derechos de propiedad intelectual
Mercancías no aptas para el consumo humano
Mercancías que carezcan de documentos de acompañamiento o de soporte relacionados con restricciones técnicas al comercio.
Así también, mediante Resolución (SENAE-DGN-2012-00238-RE, 03-jul-12) Artículo 7, se establece lo siguiente:
"Mercancía no apta para el consumo humano.- La mercancía caducada o no apta para el consumo humano, exceptuando a los medicamentos, será obligatoriamente destruida sentando los hechos en un acta a cargo de la Dirección de Zona Primaria. En la destrucción se observarán las normas vigentes en materia medioambiental."
El SENAE controla dentro de sus procesos aduaneros el ingreso de la mercancía , así como puede efectuar controles posteriores para constatar que se ha cumplido con la obligación aduanera en todo aspecto.
Además el Código Orgánico de la Producción, Comercio e Inversiones (COPCI) establece:
Art. 207.- Potestad Aduanera.- La potestad aduanera es el conjunto de derechos y atribuciones que las normas supranacionales, la ley y el reglamento otorgan de manera privativa al Servicio Nacional de Aduana del Ecuador para el cumplimiento de sus fines.
Art. 145.- Control Posterior.- Dentro del plazo de cinco años contados desde la fecha de pago de los tributos al comercio exterior el Servicio Nacional de Aduana del Ecuador podrá someter a verificación las declaraciones aduaneras, así como toda información que posea cualquier persona natural o jurídica que guarde relación con mercancías importadas.
El SENAE lidera el “Plan Integral de Lucha Contra el Contrabando y la Defraudación”, en el cual se ha logrado integrar los esfuerzos y recursos de 20 instituciones.
Este Plan se compone de estrategias integrales, con acciones para conseguir mejoras y modernizaciones en los sistemas de control, servicios y otros como la tipificación de delitos aduaneros, restructuración de infraestructura y asistencia técnica oportuna. |

Measures to prevent illicit trade in tobacco products have also been identified. All individual passengers arriving in Fiji are issued with arrival cards by pilots of aircraft or airline agents and masters of vessels or their shipping agents. Individual passengers should complete a form on arrival and declare any goods that exceed the prescribed personal allowance. (See the section on Article 6 of this report.)
In addition to the control of goods imported by arriving passengers, there is a system of notification covering any means of transport or cargo arriving in Fiji. Customs officers ensure that the above-mentioned provisions of the Customs Act are efficiently administered, while risk management and profiling have greatly assisted customs in identifying illegal activities and enhancing the facilitation of trade. The Fiji Revenue and Customs Service (FRCS) analyses information contained in advance notifications and acts as necessary, including searching vessels and imposing fines if there is proof beyond doubt that provisions of the customs legislation have been contravened. |
