El Salvador took a significant step toward modernizing its customs operations with the start of construction for the Integrated Customs Intelligence Center (CIIA). The announcement was made by the Director General of Customs, Banjamín Mayorga, on X.
“Alongside Vice President Félix Ulloa and Minister of Finance Jerson Posada, we inaugurated the construction of the Integrated Customs Intelligence Center, a key project for technological transformation and security in our customs,” Mayorga wrote.
The CIIA aims to revolutionize customs management by providing enhanced control and traceability of goods, faster and more secure clearances, and cutting-edge technology to combat smuggling while promoting transparency.
During the groundbreaking event, authorities also signed a strategic alliance with key partners to strengthen the operational and technological capabilities of the Salvadoran Customs, ensuring efficient facilitation and control of foreign trade operations.
“We continue moving toward a modern, agile, and transparent customs system,” Mayorga added, highlighting the government’s commitment to innovation and security in trade management.
