Abstract:
The work reveals the concept and features of the qualification of administrative offenses; the choice of administrative
penalties applied to persons guilty of their commission is justified; The types of administrative
responsibility for committing administrative offenses encroaching on the normal activities of customs authorities
are identified. The authors revealed signs of the composition of violations of customs rules. The possibility
of using some of them as classification criteria to determine the basis of administrative responsibility
made it possible to identify the features of administrative tort, and at the same time, to form a specific type of
classification of offenses. The authors of the article found that the specifics of administrative-legal coercion
in case of violation of customs rules are determined by its following main features: 1) application mainly by
customs authorities and their officials, as well as judges in the framework of relevant law enforcement relations;
2) the use of organizational and technical means to ensure its use; 3) application in administrative and
jurisdictional activities of customs authorities, which goes beyond the scope of proceedings on administrative
offenses; 4) the application of coercive measures mainly of a property nature; 5) close relationship with the
forms of customs control. The study proposes a solution to legal and organizational problems arising from the
application of administrative law enforcement in violation of customs regulations, taking into account the
specifics of customs and administrative legislation.
