On 16 April, EUBAM, together with the X-ray Image Analysis and Training Center of the National Revenue Administration of Poland, hosted a follow-up webinar focused on X-ray image analysis. The session served as a valuable refresher, bringing together customs officers from Ukraine and Moldova for an engaging exchange of experience and best practices.

The Head of Center`s Department shared recent examples of seizures detected through X-ray imaging and highlighted EU best practices that help improve detection and enforcement. Ukrainian and Moldovan customs officers also contributed by presenting their own significant cases. Ukrainian participants focused on customs law violations uncovered using scanning systems, while their Moldovan colleagues shared notable detections at both road and rail border crossing points.

In total, 214 customs officers took part in the training — 142 from Ukraine and 72 from Moldova. During the Q&A session, participants showed a strong interest in the use of artificial intelligence in X-ray imaging. In response, the Polish representative offered insights into how AI tools are increasingly supporting modern customs operations.
