Chief Adviser Prof Dr Muhammad Yunus has expressed hoped that Bangladesh Customs would play a pioneering role in strengthening the country's economic base and thus building an enriched state coffer.

"In building a changed Bangladesh, I think that Bangladesh Customs will infuse dynamism in the country's economy through simplifying further import and export operations and ensuring safe supply of commodities," he said in a message marking the 'International Customs Day-2025' to be observed tomorrow, according to a PID handout issued today (25 January).

Dr Yunus welcomed the move for observing the 'International Customs Day-2025' by the National Board of Revenue (NBR) in Bangladesh like other countries of the world.

Bangladesh has been observing the International Customs Day like other countries of the world as a member of the World Customs Organization (WCO).

Marking the day, the chief adviser extended heartiest felicitations to all concerned stakeholders including the officials and employees of Bangladesh Customs alongside the service recipients.

The theme of this year's Customs Day is "Customs Delivering on its Commitment to Efficiency, Security and Prosperity."

In the message, Dr Yunus said Bangladesh Customs has a unique role in expansion of international trade, boosting foreign investment, protecting the market of local industry as well as continuing the economic operations of the country.

He noted that the skilled manpower of the Bangladesh Customs has been continuing its efforts towards ensuring revenue collection side by side maintaining the environment, health safety, import and export operations and thus improving the living standards of the common people.

Under these circumstances, the Chief Adviser said that the theme of this year's International Customs Day-2025 "Customs Delivering on its Commitment to Efficiency, Security and Prosperity" is very much time befitting and important.

Besides, under the current global, political and economic context, Dr Yunus said he thinks that the skilled manpower of Bangladesh Customs would speedily complete the inspection of import and export commodities through use of technology and thus ensure customs procedures and offloading of goods.

"As a result, the supply chain of goods will be strengthened further while dynamism into the country's economy will be infused," he added.

The chief adviser also wished utmost success of the 'International Customs Day-2025'.
