Dubai Customs 1 article

Dubai Customs is Dubai’s customs authority for goods entering and leaving through the emirate’s borders, ports and airports. Its remit also covers customs clearance in Dubai, import and export declarations and customs duty administration, which gives the body a distinct operational role within its jurisdiction.

For importers, exporters, logistics firms and traders, the most practical links are border goods inspection, customs valuation services and trade facilitation in Dubai. Changes in those areas can alter procedures, approvals, enforcement or access to services administered by Dubai Customs.
