To get higher education in the sphere of customs affairs is a lot easier now. You don’t even have to go to Minsk, Grodno or Gomel. Thanks to the active cooperation between PSU and Vitebsk customs office, in 2020 at the Department of Constitutional Law and Public Administration in Mezhdurechye the new specialty “Customs Affairs” will be set (specializations “Customs Activity Legal Support” and “Customs Activity Economic Support”).
