Among the measures taken by the customs of Cap-Haitien include : training and the increase of the number of employees, the modernization of the logistics service and an increase in security. However, these new provisions that show positive results, are widely criticized and have been the target of several demonstrations. Protesters demanding the departure of Director Jean Eric Eustache and his brigade, accusing the customs service of complicating and overloading the procedure for sending the goods and also criticizing the fact that the costs of certain customs tariffs have quadrupled over the last 10 years in recent years, which would have the effect, according to the protesters, of reducing the volume of commercial activities and impoverishing the population.
