    Frequently Asked Question

    Q

    Does Customs recruit regularly?

    A

    Dependant on operational requirements the Customs Sevice periodically recruits for intakes of Trainee Customs officers for entry level positions. For these intakes up to 30 trainees can be taken on at any one time where they complete a training programme of up to four months.

    For other vacancies that are not entry level Customs officers positions, recruiting is done for these vacancies as they come available.
