Kosovo Customs has collected €1.347 billion in revenue so far, marking a 6 percent increase compared with the same period last year.

Acting Prime Minister Albin Kurti, during a visit to Kosovo Customs, said the latest results show a continued improvement in the institution’s performance.

The data presented show that from 2021 to 2025, the average growth in customs revenue was nearly three times higher than the economic growth rate. A total of €8.380 billion was collected during this period.

The increase in collections has also been accompanied by changes aimed at making it easier for businesses to operate. These measures include the completion of the nationalization of customs terminals and the option of declaring goods before their arrival.

The implementation of advance declarations has reduced goods processing times by around 70 percent.

At the same time, Customs has intensified checks at border crossings and expanded the use of technology to combat illegal activities. The scanner put into operation in Merdar has increased the capacity to detect and prevent smuggling.

The modernization process is also continuing through strategic projects, including the national single window, common transit, further automation of procedures, and the expansion of Kosovo Customs’ technological capabilities.

According to the published announcement, Kosovo Customs is maintaining a consistent and significant trend of improved performance, with €1.347 billion in revenue collected so far, or 6 percent more than last year.

From 2021 to 2025, the average rate of revenue growth was nearly three times higher than economic growth, while the amount collected during those years reached €8.380 billion.

Alongside increased efficiency in revenue collection, the institution has implemented reforms to make it easier for businesses to operate. These include the completion of the nationalization of customs terminals and the declaration of goods before arrival, a measure that has reduced processing times by around 70 percent.

Stronger border controls and the increased use of technology are among the other measures undertaken by Customs. The commissioning of the scanner in Merdar has expanded the capacity to identify and combat smuggling and illegal activities.
