Arab Customs Union

The Arab Customs Union is an agreement among Arab countries aimed at promoting trade and economic cooperation. It allows member states to eliminate tariffs and reduce trade barriers between each other, making it easier and cheaper to exchange goods. By harmonizing customs procedures and standards, the union seeks to boost intra-Arab trade and strengthen economic ties. Although the concept has been discussed since the 1960s, its full implementation has faced challenges, but it reflects the goal of enhancing economic collaboration among Arab nations for mutual benefit.
