Qatar Chamber has concluded its 30th programme for training customs trustees and brokers. The workshop was organised in cooperation with the General Customs Authority.
A total of 39 trainees took part in the event. The programme aims to qualify workers for customs clearance and inform them of the regulations, laws, and procedures relating to customs clearance. It also seeks to improve the customs clearance profession, develop the performance of workers in this sector, provide distinguished customs services to the public, and reduce the congestion in customs ports.
A number of customs experts lectured in the course, which touched on numerous topics, including preferential international agreements, customs procedures, customs tariffs in accordance with the harmonised system, provisions and rules of origin, customs law, and the Al Nadeeb Programme.
It is noteworthy that the programme, which was launched in 2015, qualified a large number of customs brokers, who received a certified certificate from the chamber at the end of the program, qualifying them for the final test that is held at the venue of the General Authority of Customs.
The Qatar Chamber regularly holds the Customs Programme, which is important to the Qatari business community, as it qualifies customs brokers and prepares them for the labour market, facilitating and accelerating procedures for clearing shipments from ports.
