Integrity in Customs – WCOA

Customs are generally entrusted with three key missions: revenue collection, trade facilitation and society protection. To effectively meet these expectations, a high level of integrity is critical. The perceived lack of integrity and/or presence of corruption can destroy the legitimacy of a Customs administration and severely limit its capacity to effectively accomplish its core missions. The overall objective of this e-learning is to create awareness on the importance of integrity in Customs and emphasize the use of WCO’s integrity development tools and instruments, including the WCO Revised Arusha Declaration as a key instrument in promoting integrity within Customs administrations.
