WCO Global Transit Conference

Information on Side Events and Exhibition Stands

Our partner organizations may organize a side event and set up exhibition stands during the WCO Global Transit Conference to be held on 10-11 July 2017, at WCO Headquarters, Brussels, Belgium. It will be a great opportunity for promoting activities/initiatives to high-level participants from Customs administrations, private sector and international/regional organizations. In addition, bilateral meetings may be held in WCO meeting rooms.

This paper provides practical information on side events, exhibition stands and bilateral meetings.
