The objective of this training is to increase the effectiveness and efficiency and results of controls (operational procedures and working methods) at the EU's external land borders as well as in ports and in mobile controls. The improved customs controls capability and performance standards of customs can reinforce security and safety within the Union. Also the filtering out of goods, which are harmful to the citizens, the society, and nature or in general, means more safety and security in Europe and in the global context. These objectives lead to the necessity to further train the customs officers working in tasks including car search.

Customs officers participating in the training will be acquainted to the safe and proper use of the tools and the different special features stemming from the different build and power of the vehicles.
