Authorities foil smuggling of 700 cigarette cartons in northern region

Customs personnel from the Anti-Smuggling Directorate successfully prevented an attempt to smuggle 700 cigarette cartons during anti-smuggling patrols in the northern region.

The vehicle was seized, and legal actions were taken according to regulations.

The Jordan Customs Department urges citizens to report customs violations or smuggling attempts by calling the toll-free number 105.

The department reiterated its commitment to ensuring market fairness and combating all forms of smuggling, which threaten the national economy and harm local manufacturers.

Smuggled goods bypass regulatory oversight and Jordanian standards, and evade customs duties, violating the law.
