Expected Results
- Within the DGCCRF, inspectors conduct investigations and regulate the economy for the benefit of businesses and consumers. They are assigned to the central administration in Paris or to offices located in departments and regions.
- The General Directorate of Customs and Indirect Taxes (DGDDI) is a directorate under the Ministryof the Economy, Finance, and Industrial and Digital Sovereignty. TheDGDDI addresses contemporary challenges: the acceleration of trade, new technologies, and emerging threats. The customs service’s identity is thus built around two pillars, which sometimes overlap but each constitute a distinct and strong identity: the border and goods.
