About the Customs and Excise Division

The Solomon Islands Customs and Excise Division (SICED) is a key contributor in the Government’s commitment to maximising revenue, facilitating trade and protecting the border from the illegal movement of goods and people for the safety of the nation.

SICED ensures compliance with border related laws and administers a range of programs to assist local industries in contributing to economic growth.
