International Customs Organization (WCO)

The International Customs Organization (WCO) is a global network that brings together customs authorities from around the world. Its main goal is to improve and standardize customs procedures, facilitate international trade, and combat illegal activities like smuggling and terrorism. The WCO develops guidelines, best practices, and tools to help countries analyze trade data, secure borders, and ensure the efficient movement of goods across borders. By fostering international cooperation, the WCO helps create a smoother, safer, and more consistent global customs system.
