Features: The objective of this book is to: identify the role of customs in the process of global economic integration and explore the transformation of modern customs tasks and functions. In today's era, globalization has become a reality of our lives. In the face of this global trend, customs seem unnecessary, becoming an obstacle to the logistics of international trade. However, the reality is quite the opposite—the role of customs is transforming, and their functions are strengthening. How have customs adapted their roles in the process of global economic integration? This book primarily takes the perspective of developing countries, discussing the role and status of customs in developing countries under the WTO framework. It also conducts comparative studies of customs in representative countries with different levels of economic development. Additionally, it offers valuable insights into how developing countries can reform and improve their customs in the context of economic globalization. The book is primarily aimed at customs officers and customs professional students, especially customs managers. It can serve as teaching material for students in customs academies and various customs training programs. At the same time, it provides a wealth of useful information for those engaged in economics and foreign trade import and export.
