Effective Enforcement Inspires Confidence
Finance Minister Makis Keravnos has publicly expressed his satisfaction with the consistent achievements of the Customs Department at the nation’s entry and exit points. These successes encompass airports, seaports, and strategically critical checkpoints along the “green line,” underscoring the administration’s proactive stance on border enforcement.
Precision And Professionalism On The Frontline
In an official statement, the Minister highlighted that the identification and seizure of numerous contraband goods validate the effectiveness of the state’s targeted measures. He emphasized that such results are a testament to both the professionalism and dedication of customs officials. This rigorous approach ensures that smuggled merchandise is intercepted before it reaches free zones without the requisite tax contributions.

Strategic Policy And Coordinated Action
Further detailing the effort, the Minister noted that intensifying controls at access points associated with occupied territories and the subsequent confiscation of substantial quantities of illegally imported products is central to the government’s broader anti-smuggling strategy. A recent significant seizure, detailed in an official report, underscores the decisive measures adopted by the Finance Ministry and the Customs Department.
Commitment To Fair Trade And Public Welfare
The government remains steadfast in its commitment to advancing the operational capabilities of the Customs Department. By bolstering enforcement at traditional transit points and within free zones, it aims to ensure adherence to trade regulations, maintain public health standards, and safeguard public revenues. This balanced strategy not only promotes lawful commerce but also reinforces the overall integrity of national economic policies.
