The Dirección General de Aduanas de El Salvador began a working session with the World Customs Organization (WCO) to strengthen its integrated risk management capabilities through knowledge sharing and the adoption of international best practices to improve trade control and facilitation processes.
The director of Dirección General de Aduanas, Benjamín Mayorga, explained that this activity is supported by the Swiss SECO Program and aims to strengthen institutional tools for identifying, analyzing, and managing risks within customs operations.
WCO experts from Peru and Argentina are participating in the session, sharing experiences on international models applied to customs risk management, with the goal of providing knowledge that can be adapted to the country’s needs.
Mayorga emphasized that this exchange will also allow the General Directorate of Customs to present the progress made in consolidating a more modern, intelligent, and efficient management model, focused on streamlining trade processes without neglecting necessary controls.
Integrated risk management allows customs authorities to identify potential irregularities, prioritize inspections, and make better use of available resources, facilitating the movement of goods and strengthening the security of the logistics chain.
Furthermore, these actions contribute to improving the transparency and effectiveness of foreign trade operations by applying criteria based on information analysis and international standards.
This initiative is part of international cooperation efforts to strengthen the institution’s technical capabilities and move toward a more agile and secure customs administration aligned with globally implemented practices.
