An excerpt from a Swedish law regarding penalties for smuggling:
"I det fall bestämmelserna om tullbehandling inte är tillämpliga vid införsel från eller utförsel till ett annat EU-land, gäller vad som anges i första och andra styckena angående tullbehandling i stället förfarande enligt lagen (1996:701) om Tullverkets befogenheter vid Sveriges gräns mot ett annat land inom Europeiska unionen. Lag (2016:275)."
What does "i stället förfarande enligt ..." mean in this context -- i.e., how is "i stället" connected to the words that immediately follow?
If the sentence said "i stället för", then it would be pretty clear that it meant "instead of [whatever follows]", but since it is not followed by "för" (and for other contextual reasons), I'm not sure about that translation.
Thanks for any assistance.

instead proceedings according to ... are applicable
You have to look further back in the sentence for the connection, and the Swedish text is not entirely lucid still. But if you put a comma after "gäller" and understand "vad som" as "så som" with the reference back to the first and second para of the law, it becomes clear(ish).
