The Libyan Customs Authority reported last Saturday (25 April) that it had signed a cooperation memorandum with US company, Culmen International, to strengthen technical and human capacities, particularly at border crossings.
The agreement focuses on training programmes for customs officers at Ras Ajdir and Wazen land border crossing with Tunisia. It aims to enhance detection capabilities and provide modern equipment to improve efficiency.
The Customs Authority said this partnership supports the adoption of international best practices in inspection and border security, and builds on the Early Border Detection Project, contributing to stronger border control and protection of the national economy.
It will be recalled that Culmen has provided various training courses since 2019, mainly to the Libyan Civil Aviation and Airports Authority as part of efforts to lift the EU flight ban.
