Good day! I will gladly help you understand this order of the Ministry of Finance.
1. **Essence of the Order:** This order introduces changes to the procedure for exchanging information between the State Tax Service (STS) and the State Customs Service (SCS). It expands the list of information systems through which data exchange is carried out, adding registers of licensees and places of circulation of спирту [spirit], alcohol, tobacco and fuel to them. This should contribute to more effective control over the circulation of excisable goods.
