<p align="center"><b>Simplified customs procedures for the company </b></p> |
2 |
<p>Today PLIVA started implementing simplified customs procedures, granted to |
3 |
the company as part of a pilot-project by the Customs Administration of the |
4 |
Republic of Croatia. PLIVA was the first company in Croatia to gain this privileged |
5 |
status. The first shipment of imported goods was cleared this way today at PLIVA's |
6 |
site in Savski Marof, instead of at a customs office as was the procedure until |
7 |
now. </p> |
8 |
<p>PLIVA will gain numerous benefits from this project such as faster flow of |
9 |
customs procedures at the border, direct transport from the border to the production |
10 |
site, the possibility of removing customs labels on PLIVA's site and subsequently |
11 |
file the declarations. As a result, PLIVA will optimize supplies, make better |
12 |
use of transport capacities, reduce product delivery time and minimize costs. |

<p>This summer, the Customs Administration of the Republic of Croatia included |
15 |
PLIVA in this pilot-project based on its record as an exceptionally reliable |
16 |
and trustworthy partner. During the pilot-project, selected companies will have |
17 |
special status with simplified importation customs procedures. </p> |
18 |
<p>The project brings Croatia closer to the latest European and global trends, |
19 |
and confirms PLIVA's reputation as a reliable partner well on its way to achieve |
20 |
its vision: to be a pharmaceutical company bringing superior and innovative |
21 |
solutions to customer needs by competing on the global market. </p> |
