World Customs Organization (WCO), intergovernmental organization
established as the Customs Co-operation Council (CCC) in 1952 to improve
the efficiency and effectiveness of customs administrations worldwide. In
1948 a study group of the Committee for European Economic Cooperation, a
precursor of the Organization for European Economic Co-operation (OEEC),
created a customs committee to study the possibility of creating one or more
inter-European customs unions. This committee, formally established as the
CCC in 1952, enjoyed decades of growth, including the addition of new
members outside Europe. In recognition of its global membership, the CCC
was renamed the World Customs Organization in 1994. Headquarters are
in Brussels.
