Abstract
This handbook aims to make a positive
contribution to the efforts that many countries are
undertaking to modernize their customs administrations. The
handbook views a competent and well-organized customs
service as one that successfully balances its various
responsibilities to ensure a high level of compliance with
revenue objectives and regulatory requirements while at the
same time intervening as little as possible in the
legitimate movement of goods and people across borders. The
handbook recognizes that conditions differ greatly across
countries, so that each customs administration will need to
tailor its modernization efforts to national objectives,
implementation capacities, and resource availability.
