Korea Customs Museum
A museum honoring customs history and officials' contributions, featuring a promotional video room, customs history hall, administrator section, and diplomat area.
Introduction
The National Customs Museum was established to remember the history of customs and the hard work of customs officials who protected customs sovereignty and national interests. It was built on the first floor of the Seoul Headquarters Customs Office in August 2000 to commemorate the 30th anniversary of the opening of the Korea Customs Service. Although the inside of the museum is not very spacious, it is well-organized, including a promotional video room, customs history hall, customs administration hall, and customs diplomacy hall. If you apply for the customs experience program, you can try on the official uniform and see with your own eyes what customs does, which can be helpful in career exploration.
