Islamabad: October 30, 2025

Air Cargo Control Unit (ACCU) of the Customs Collectorate Airports Karachi foiled an attempt to smuggle narcotics via international mail, detecting 2.19 Kg of marijuana worth Rs 67.5 million concealed in tin cans from Thailand that had been deceptively labeled as "Thai Red Tea".

The surge in global e-commerce has greatly increased cross-border trade. Through constant vigilance and effective interception, Pakistan Customs continues to safeguard our communities from harm.

FBR remains committed to strict vigilance against narcotics smuggling through all means including international mail.
