When is International Customs Day?
Thursday January 26thEvery year on January 26th, International Customs Day highlights the role of custom officials and agencies in ensuring the movement of goods across the world's borders.

Customs is the department in a region that is responsible for collecting tariffs. The movement of products into and out of the country is also controlled by Customs. These products can be anything from animals to hazardous chemicals to personal care. The WCO helps make customs administrations around the world more effective. The organisation, which is headquartered in Brussels, Belgium, is made up of 182 members from around the world. The members are from developing countries, with three-quarters of the members coming from third-world countries. They are responsible for more than 80% of world trade.
Although borders divide, customs link, according to the WCO. They exist to provide leadership, direction, and assistance to customs administrations. Customs, they also believe, helps to satisfy our planet's economic, socioeconomic, and environmental needs. Customs, in turn, contributes to a sustainable future..
