The Customs Gala
Ecus hosts Tullgalan every year – a half-day packed with expertise, the latest news, and inspiration for those working with customs, international trade, and transport.
Tullgalan has become an important meeting place where we bring together companies and industry colleagues to highlight what’s happening right now. You’ll get practical insights, key updates, and the opportunity to network with others who face the same day-to-day challenges.
New this year: Tullgalan is open to everyone – whether you’re a customer with us today or not. But seats are limited, so sign up and secure your spot.
