Belarus says its customs service will read declarations by machine vision

State Customs Committee of Belarus — Belarus's State Customs Committee plans a customs AI application shifting from electronic to "intelligent" processing, applying machine vision to shipping and commercial paperwork attached to declarations.

Method and sources

Every entry on this page is a named organisation putting AI to work in a real job, taken from the State of Applied AI record. Each one is traced to the report it came from and dated, and where a figure is the organisation’s own the entry says so rather than presenting it as an independent result. Readiness, ecosystem and policy figures, where shown, are attributed on the card to the body that published them.

The record is maintained continuously by the Industrial Research Unit of the Straits Institute for Applied AI: entries are added as they are found and verified, not on a schedule, and nothing is published without an open source behind it. It currently holds 4731 entries across 249 countries.
