Applications for a number of officer positions in the Nigeria Customs Service (NCS) were opened on Friday, December 27, 2024. The organisation is taking applications for superintendent, inspector, and customs assistant cadres.
As part of its continuous efforts to improve trade facilitation and aid in the country’s economic recovery, the NCS recently announced that it had obtained authority to hire 3,927 officers in 2025.
The meeting came after President Bola Ahmed Tinubu presented the National Assembly with the 2025 budget, which sets an ambitious spending target of N48 trillion with a projected revenue of N35 trillion.
At the agency’s 61st quarterly board meeting, which took place on Wednesday, December 18, at the Customs House in Maitama, Abuja, the decision to hire more Customs officers was underlined.
Nigerians were cautioned by Customs to be cautious of scammers who might try to take advantage of the recruitment process.

TimesNow.com.ng reported that the Nigeria Customs Service (NCS) has cautioned the public about scammers posing as the agency on social media.
Abdullahi Maiwada, its national public relations officer, gave the warning in a statement titled, “Public awareness against fraudsters impersonating Nigeria Customs Service on social media platforms.”
It would be recalled that earlier this year, TimesNow.com.ng reported that the NCS had resumed the electronic auctioning of abandoned and seized cars and other goods that have overstayed in the ports.
