Today we commemorate International Customs Day, a day when worldwide attention is drawn to the important work of Customs.

This year, the day is extra special for Customs Caribbean Netherlands: we welcome delegations from Curaçao, Aruba, Suriname, and the Netherlands. Their presence demonstrates the importance of collaboration. Together, we learn and strengthen each other, so we can better address border crossing challenges.

We thank all customs officers for their dedication, professionalism, and commitment. Thanks to your work, our borders are secure, trade is fair, and our society remains protected.
