“…However, the cost of cigarettes in Ukraine is lower than in the EU countries which share a common border with it in the West. Thus, in Ukraine, there is a problem with the illegal import of tobacco products from the North and the East, and their illegal export to the West ( Filippov, 2019).…”

The relevance of the study is explained by the strengthening of the adverse impact of tobacco smuggling on economic and social processes in Ukraine. The purpose of the study was to determine the specific features of the interpretation of the category “smuggling” in the legislative and general scientific contexts, to explore the problem of smuggling of tobacco products in Ukraine. General scientific methods of analysis, synthesis, observation and the graph-analytical method of presenting research results are used in the research. The definition of “smuggling” was analysed according to Ukrainian and foreign legislation, and according to general approaches. The interpretation of the smuggling category differs depending on the aspects of the application. Thus, according to the general lexical content, smuggling is understood as the illegal movement of goods across the customs border. And at the legislative level, smuggling usually includes the illegal import or export of specific groups of goods, the list of which is established by the legislation of the state. The adverse influence of smuggling on the economic and social processes in the state is determined. The problem of tobacco smuggling in Ukraine is analysed. In recent years the area of smuggling flows of tobacco products in Ukraine has changed significantly. Conventionally, Ukraine was one of the main source countries smuggling tobacco products that were illegally supplied to EU countries. The need to introduce criminal liability for the smuggling of tobacco products in Ukraine is substantiated based on the study of foreign experience and the determination of the consequences of such smuggling for the economy and social sphere.

“…Illegal trade is not an exclusive problem of the Paraná western border region. According to Filippov (2019), the unlawful movement of tobacco products across borders is a type of shadow economic activity that leads to an annual financial loss of more than 10 billion euros in the budgets of the European Union and its members. The author identified the interrelation between cigarette smuggling and cross‐border crime and presented some ways to combat this phenomenon, including, among others, by harmonizing national policies within the European Union.…”

This paper analyzes the illegal trade practices carried out in the Paraná western border region and its impacts on each federative unit (FU) regarding gross output (GO), taxes, labor income, and employment. An interregional input–output system was used for this analysis. The results show that the negative impact on the national economy, if the police/Federal Revenue had not seized any product, would be twice as large as the amount seized, exceeding one billion reais in the 2017 national GO. Thus, considering the volume seized, cigarettes would have been the product that would harm the Brazilian economy most if the seizures had not occurred, and the state most negatively impacted would be Rio Grande do Sul. However, in terms of production, taxes, and income multipliers, the most harmful products for the Brazilian economy would have been electronic and computer products, and the FU most impacted by the entry of these products would have been São Paulo.
