He also outlined Bahrain Customs’ innovative strategic initiatives supporting trade facilitation and business efficiency, including advanced digital systems, risk-based clearance processes, and the upcoming OFOQ 2 platform designed to accelerate procedures, enhance security, and strengthen supply-chain connectivity.
