National Customs Systems
National Customs Systems are organized frameworks that governments use to manage and regulate the movement of goods across a country’s borders. They ensure compliance with laws, collect tariffs and taxes, and prevent illegal items, like smuggling or counterfeit products. These systems involve processes, technology, and personnel working together to efficiently inspect shipments, clear shipments for entry or exit, and maintain security. They serve as the country's gatekeeper, balancing trade facilitation with security and revenue collection, while supporting economic growth and protecting citizens.
