hi friend,

The minimum to enroll yourself for the post of custom officer is a simple graduation with greater than 50% marks. One has to take the examination of IAS (conducted by UPSC) , and clear it in order to get a job in custom officer.
Actually two separate services, this is one of the two main tax collecting Departments of the government whose function may be divided into two broad areas:
-The control of imported and exported goods for the purpose of duty, statistics and checks for entry of prohibited and restricted goods, especially smuggled drugs.
-The administration and collection of most of the taxes on consumer expenditure (indirect taxes) levied in the country.

which examination do I need to give from UPSC to become a Custom officer ?
