Dear Internet Users,
On behalf of the entire staff of the Gabonese Customs and on my own behalf, I would like to warmly welcome you to our website. Consider this platform your own, as it has been designed, developed, and regularly updated for your benefit.
In this digital age, the Directorate General of Customs and Indirect Duties is committed to an ongoing digital transformation through the dematerialization of customs procedures, the streamlining of clearance processes, and enhancing its visibility both nationally and internationally. This communication tool aims to provide you with an overview of our activities, missions, procedures, legal framework, and achievements.
As for myself, I am committed, in accordance with our Minister's directives, to supporting the economic activity of our country by optimizing revenue collection and modernizing our administration.
To meet these challenges, the men and women who make up the customs administration must work in solidarity and synergy to achieve our goals and build a strong customs administration.
Moreover, collaboration with the private sector remains at the core of our operations, as economic actors are instrumental in fostering the development of our country. We have a responsibility to support them by ensuring predictable and smooth customs clearance procedures.
I hope this platform will provide you with the information needed to better understand the formalities related to the customs clearance of goods.
Our primary objective is to serve you with honor and dedication.
Hugues Modeste ODJANGOU
