Customs is a large organization with offices in all capital cities and also in some regional centres. Customs offers varied and challenging work. That’s why Customs officers can move through a variety of work areas. Some of them involve shift-work and overtime. Most officers work closely with the public.

At the Customs Academy you learn about the legal areas in which Customs operates to fulfil enforcement objectives. After learning the theory you will be asked to put your knowledge into practice. Working at different departments you will understand that teamwork is essential to the day-to-day operation. And you can be asked to take on many different roles.

Many of them are questioned, some are searched and some are penalized or charged if they break the law.
