The General Authority for Land and Sea Ports (Arabic: الهيئة العامة للمنافذ البرية والبحرية السورية, romanized: al-Hayʾah al-ʿĀmmah lil-Manāfidh al-Barrīyah wa-al-Baḥrīyah al-Sūrīyah; formerly General Directorate of Customs (Arabic: المديرية العامة للجمارك, romanized: al-mudiriat al-amat liljamarik) is a Syrian law enforcement agency responsible for controlling international transports to the country, checking goods and passenger movements, and enforcing laws that prevent economical losses due to smuggling offenses. It was established in December 2024 by the Syrian transitional government.
On 18 December 2024, It has issued a decision, signed by its new Director General, Qutaiba Ahmed Badawi to dissolve the customs police in Syria with all its names and formations, to be reconstituted later in a manner that “serves the public interest".[1]
The current director of the General Authority for Land and Sea Ports is Qutaiba Ahmed Badawi since 31 December 2024.[2]
