Passengers heading to the UAE through Dubai Int’l Airport will be welcomed and received with gifts on the occasion of Eid Al Adha by the inspectors’ staff.
Instructions were issued to operate customs portals to the utmost and specify some for the elderly in order to facilitate the procedures of the large number of passengers who normally head to the UAE without any delay and to complete their customs procedures through the Customs Operations employees at every air customs entry. So is the case for the gold traders who continue to travel through the Airport as their procedures will be facilitated through the specialised employees at the Gold and Jewellery Sections.
Ahmed Mahboob Musabih, Executive Director of Client Management Division at Dubai Customs said that the Department is keen on ensuring the continuity of providing services of goods clearance during the Eid holiday in line with its vision and strategic objectives with respect to the quality standards of customs service delivery as well as supporting the economy and trade meeting the customers’ needs and requirements on a constant base. —
