WCO SAFE Framework

The World Customs Organization (WCO) SAFE Framework is an international agreement that helps countries work together to secure and facilitate global trade. It sets standards for customs procedures, promotes information sharing, and encourages risk-based inspections. The goal is to prevent illegal activities like smuggling and terrorism while making trade faster and smoother. By implementing SAFE, customs authorities worldwide build trust, ensure security, and support economic growth through efficient, coordinated efforts.
