}}Her Majesty's Customs (Gibraltar) [HM Customs Gibraltar] are the primary Customs and import authority in the British Overseas Territory of Gibraltar. It is a uniformed, enforcement body, controlled by the Ministry of Finance, Government of Gibraltar. The Customs Officers check commercial goods and ordinary people entering with possessions into the territory.[1]

Purpose

The main purpose of HM Customs Gibraltar is to carry out normal customs duties at the entry points to the Territory, search for suspected illegal weapons, drugs or goods, carry out basic good-import checks and requirements.

Uniform

Customs officers, up to and including the Collector of Customs, wear a traditional British Customs uniform.

The symbol of HM Customs is a portcullis, surrounded by a wreath and surmounted by a crown, representing their authority and the monarch.

For males this includes:

Formal dress[2]- a white-topped peaked cap with capbadge- white long sleeve shirt- black tie- Naval blue tunic (Reefer jacket) with rank sewn on to both cuffs- dark blue trousers- black formal shoesDay dress:[3][4]- a white-topped peaked cap with capbadge, white long-sleeve or short sleeve shirt, black tie, black trousers, black boots or shoes, black jacket, high-visibility equipment vest and rank worn on rank slides on the shoulders of shirts, jackets and vests.Practical (marine) dress:[5]- blue baseball cap with Customs logo on front, black trousers with leg-pockets, dark blue polo top with Customs logo on left breast, blue jacket, high-visibility equipment vest and rank worn on rank slides on the shoulders of shirts, jackets and vests.

For females this includes; the same as above apart from the fact that the white-topped female bowler cap with capbadge and black capband is worn instead of the males' peaked cap.[6] A skirt may also be worn in lieu of trousers, in formal dress.

All medals and decorations (including medal ribbons whilst not on parade) are to be worn on the left side of the tunic. Obviously, 'stars' for senior decorations (e.g. Order of Merit) would be worn in the usual fashion.

HM Customs Marine Section

The Customs of Gibraltar operate a Marine Unit, which operates two-high speed RIBs.[8] The Maritime Journal reported that "Performance patrol boat specialist FB Design has recently delivered two high speed RIBs to HM Customs in Gibraltar. Capable of speeds of over 50 knots these two RIBs are based on standard production hull designs developed by this Italian builder, but they have been fully customised to meet the requirements of the Customs".

HM Customs does carry out counter-drug operations, sometimes in conjunction with the Royal Gibraltar Police and Spanish Guardia Civil.

HM Customs seizes illegal drugs and carrys out deterrence operations.[9]

Collector of Customs

The Collector of Customs is the most senior Customs officer and is responsible for the day-to-day leadership of the organisation.
