Customs Service of  21 states and 17 pharmaceutical companies took part in 

this international event. The letter of Azerbaijani  President  Ilham  Aliyev  

addressed  to  the  participants  of  the  International  Conference  stated  that 

Azerbaijan is in close cooperation with partner countries, the  World Cus-

toms Organization, World Health Organization,  Economic  cooperation  

Organization,  the  World  Intellectual  Property  Organization,  Interpol and 

other international organizations to prevent the importation of counterfeit 

drugs, to withdraw from circulation such drugs, to discover persons who are 

engaged in the production of counterfeit drugs and to make them answerable 

for this. It was stated in the conference that in many countries the fight 

against counterfeit drugs is not conducted appropriately, the  dealers using 

gaps in the laws easily realize their accursed deeds. A.Kartilla, the chairman 

of the Council of the World Health Organization, noted in his report that, 

first of all the efforts of individual countries should be combined in the pre-

vention of transportation of counterfeit drugs, or transit. Secretary-General 

of the SCO Michel Danen’s report on the global customs control against the 

risks of counterfeit drugs was heard in the conference. Due to the amount of 

money collected by pharmacist companies which participated in the confer-

ence and from the charity concerts organized by the SCO people who are 

suffering from serious illnesses were helped with medicines. Advanced 

Studies in Science: Theory and Practice The customs bodies of Azerbaijan 

Republic which is a member of CITES Convention regulating the illegal 

trade of plant and animal species are actively involved in the fight against 

the taking out the rare plant and animal species from the country. As a result 

of cooperation of the State Customs Committee with Azerbaijan  representa-

tion  of  World  Nature  Preservation  Fund  was  prepared  regulations  on  

making  customs rules official plant and animal species and samples in-

cluded in the CITES Convention (İlham Aliyev, 2010). One of the main du-

ties of the customs bodies of the Republic of Azerbaijan is  to prevent 

smuggling of the ancient historical and art items which includes national 

and moral values, a rare species of flora and fauna from the country. In case 

of illegal transportation of goods of historical and cultural importance they 

are arrested by customs service and are confiscated on the relevant decisions 

of the court and customs bodies. As a result of prevention of efforts for ille-

gal transportation of historical and cultural items across the boundaries of 

Azerbaijan has been created a valuable  collection of works of art and cul-

ture in the SCC.  

Over hundreds of art items were handed the country's museums, li-

braries, and cultural centers of science  having  scientific,  artistic  and his-

torical  value  by  the  customs  service.  For  example,  in  1995-2014,

nearly a thousand samples of archaeological and cultural heritage of histori-

cal importance, including the ancient carpet patterns, icons, books and coins 

were confiscated. 22 items were given to Azerbaijan State Art Museum, 14 

rare books covering IX-XX centuries  –  to M.F.Akhundov National Li-

brary, 67 pieces of antique carpets and carpet products to Azerbaijan Carpet 

Museum, 60 pieces of the manuscript to the Institute of Manuscripts, 410 

samples of numismatics to the Azerbaijan National History Museum, the  

Koran and other religious books dated to the VIII-XIX centuries to the Cau-

casus Moslem Office, 22 ancient icon sand books to the Russian Orthodox 

church. There are customs museums operating in Azerbaijan. The main part 

of the exposition in Customs History  Museum is the works of art and cul-

ture confiscated by customs officers. Among the collection stored here, 

there are collections of jewelry and carpets dated to the XIX and XX centu-

ries, coins of the ancient Roman and Byzantine Empires and the state of  

Safavid, Koran manuscripts dated back to the XIX and XX centuries, icons, 

delicate daggers and swords of the Afghan and Indian origin. In addition, 

Museum reflecting the history of the customs service in the Nakhchivan 

Autonomous Republic was  established  in  the  border  with  the  Republic  

of  Turkey  and  Iran  (Azerbaijan  Republic  State  Customs Comitee, 

2002). 

 In June 2007, Customs History Museum was elected as a member of 

the International Customs Organization Museum (ICOM), and in September 

2008, the International Association of Customs Museums (IACM). In total, 

24 countries are members of the International Association of Customs Mu-

seums. The official journal of the Association “Newsletter” is published 

once a year in Hamburg. The article in the 2008 issue of the bulletin “The 

customs of Azerbaijan on the threshold of the Cultural Diversity of Eurasia” 

provides detailed information about the creation of customs museum. The 

expansion of international cooperation in the fight against the violations of 

law is one of the priorities of law enforcement bodies of the customs service 

of Azerbaijan Republic. The implementation of methods based on best in-

ternational practices in the field of customs operations allows strengthening 

the operational-investigational and preventive  measures.  

In order to ensure economic security smuggling channels are found 

and eliminated, those who have violated law are made answerable for their 

deeds. In the certificate for the implementation of the customs identification 

and in the permit for free  use in the customs territory of Azerbaijan Repub-

lic the following information shall be included: name of cultural heritage; 

the preparation techniques; material; size; the date; value; cultural values of 

the degree of protection of the cultural wealth that given certificate (preven-

tive conservation, restoration, private); judgment for transportation; a spe-

cial regime of cultural wealth that issued certificate for (temporary, return 

period); the purpose of transportation (exhibitions, presentations, restoration 

etc.); the photo of cultural wealth that given certificate for, the validity pe-

riod of the certificate given for the cultural wealth. 

Within the framework of the 19 th session of the United Nations 

Commission on Crime Prevention and Criminal Justice it was organized ex-

hibition “Azerbaijan customs on the guard of cultural heritage” (Vienna, 17-

21 May 2010). The works of art, manuscripts, ancient books, numismatics 

samples, carpets and soon confiscated by the State Customs Committee of 

the Republic of Azerbaijan were demonstrated in the Advanced Studies in 

Science: Theory and Practice exhibition hall of Rotunda. The aim of the ex-

hibition was to demonstrate the historical and cultural patterns taken  when  

tried  to  be  passed  through  the  customs  border  of  Azerbaijan  illegally  

and  to  provide  information on measures taken to protect the cultural heri-

tage in the country (The State Customs Committee’s Press Service, n.d.). 

Giving of religious items confiscated by the customs bodies of Azer-

baijan to the various relevant organizations has become a tradition  -  respect 

to national-moral and religious values and tolerance in the country. Objects 

of historical importance which were tried to be passed out of customs con-

trol at different times were confiscated by the officers of the customs offices 

in Tovuz and Khachmaz. On January 5, 2007 16 pieces of icons were pre-

sented to Jean-Mironosets church in Baku confiscated by Azerbaijan cus-

toms bodies. According to experts, these icons confiscated at customs bor-

der were the historical and cultural examples of the eighteenth and nine-

teenth centuries. Presentation of the holy books, icons and other religious 

items confiscated by the customs bodies to the relevant organizations has 

become a tradition. On June 10, 2009, the presentation of the religious 

books, crosses and icons confiscated by the customs offices was held for the 

second time at Saint Jean-Mironosets church. This time, 663 books relating 

to Christian religion that have been published in recent years, 4 icons dated 

to the nineteenth century (“Jesus Christ” and “Saint Mother” as well as 

other icons) and a cross with the image of Jesus Christ on were given free of 

charge (Guliev, 2013 b, pp. 30-32). In April 2009, the exhibition on the 

theme “Azerbaijani customs on the guard of cultural and religious heritage” 

was organized in Vatican by the State Customs Committee and the Ministry 

of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Azerbaijan. The senior officials of the 

Vatican, the United States, Turkey, Montenegro,  Bulgaria,  the  Ukraine  

and  some  other  countries,  representatives  of  international  organizations  

took part at the event. The purpose of the exhibition was a desire to show

the prevention by the Azerbaijan customs service attempts of smuggling of a 

great deal of ancient objects that were tried to be taken abroad by transit 

from our independent country in recent years, and to get to know the Azer-

baijani people's history, culture and tolerance. The statue of Jesus' made in 

the second half of the nineteenth century in the workshops of one of Catho-

lic churches confiscated when was tried to be smuggled from Azerbaijan 

was delivered to the representation of Roman Catholic Church in Azerbai-

jan. In Azerbaijan where the roots of Customs service dates back to the pe-

riod of the Great Silk Road in order to study the customs’ history researches 

are carried out at the Institute of History of the National Academy of Sci-

ences. It was achieved an agreement for joint researches of Azerbaijan and 

Vatican scientists in this area, and permission for the researchers to use the 

rich archives of the Vatican to carry out scientific research.  

 Due to the joint researches with Azerbaijan National Academy of 

Sciences since 1998, the State Customs Committee continues editions cov-

ering activities in the field of protection of cultural heritage. The book “The 

museums on the history of the customs” published in 2010 provides detailed 

information about customs museums, their history and activities. The exhib-

its of the museums are accompanied by scientific texts on the history of cus-

toms service. On June 21, 2010, on the initiative of the State Customs 

Committee at the main building of the Council of Europe in Strasbourg, 

France, was held the official opening of the exhibition “Azerbaijani customs 

on guard of cultural heritage”. During the  official visit of Russian President 

Dmitry  Medvedev  to  Azerbaijan  in  September  2010,  President  of  

Azerbaijan  Ilham  Aliyev  presented  the President of Russia five icons 

dated to the nineteenth century. These works tried to be taken abroad ille-

gally from Russia were detected at Azerbaijani-Russian border by customs 

inspectors and those who attempted to pass them through the border were 

made answerable  (Azerbaijan, n.d.). On February 8, 2013 the State Cus-

toms Committee together with the Consulate General of Azerbaijan in Los 

Angeles at the event “San Diego meets with Azerbaijan” organized exhibi-

tion in San Diego, State of California “Azerbaijani customs on guard of cul-

tural heritage” and provided with wide information about the history of de-

velopment of customs.  During the event, there was a concert of music-jazz 

trio of Azerbaijan and American jazz quartet. Thus, the global socio-

political and economic processes put new tasks before the customs services. 

And all of these make necessary to improve the customs regulations, to 

study Advanced Studies in Science: Theory and Practice and disseminate 

the foremost practices of the developed countries in the field of customs, 

and to join the international conventions adopted in this area   (Guliev,

The implementation of the following would strengthen the fight 

against smuggling of the material and cultural wealth: 

-  the establishment of customs posts in line with international standards, the 

establishment of 

relevant laboratories in operating areas of custom houses; the adoption and 

implementation of regulatory acts and rules regulating search operations by 

the customs bodies; 

-  the provision of exchange of experience with the customs bodies of the 

developed countries, 

staff training and refresher courses; 

-  development  of  operating  instructions  and  visual  teaching  aids  in  

this  field,  the  wide  use  of teaching modules system; 

-  to improve the provision of information in the fight against smuggling and 

the violation of customs regulations and increasing the number of check-

points in the single corporate  networking online.
