Customs Collector dot com

Updated May 3, 2005.


The following web site is dedicated to Customs Officers and to collectors of Customs Insignia. This site contains images and information of Customs patches and Insignia from around the globe.

A permanent thank you page for all those who have helped in the growth of this web site. If you have Customs patches / insignia that are not represented on this web site, please drop me an email and let me know, so that I can add them to the virtual Customs web site.

Updates in this edition:
I've let this site lapse over the last six months, due to the little bundle of joy that has joined our family, Matthew John. However, now that life is settling down somewhat and we have a nice routine established, I'm finding a little more time to devote back to our favorite hobby, so without further ado, here's a picture of my little man.

Patch & Badge additions: Cambodia, Canada, France, Germany, India, Iran, Kenya, Pakistan, Suriname, US Customs, United Nations, (identified by the icon). I'm just starting to get back into the website, so if you have any new insignia, please email me and let's get this website going strong again!! 

I am a member of the Police Insignia Collectors Association of Australia, member number 872. My membership to this organization governs the way in which I conduct patch trades with fellow Law Enforcement Officers. If you wish to obtain any information in relation to joining this organization, don't hesitate to email me.

About me, my work, hobbies and interests.

I live in the southern suburbs of Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. I work for the Australian Customs Service and my interests include Basketball, Skiing and Law Enforcement Patch collecting.

I am a serving Officer with the Australian Customs Service, based in Sydney, Australia. I have been with the Customs Service for nine years. As a result of several trips overseas I became interested in the hobby of Law Enforcement patch collecting, this website being the end result.

If you need to contact the Australian Customs Service regarding any illegal / suspicious activity, there is a free call number within Australia, 1800-06-1800. Or you can contact them by email

Information that may be of interest to the Australian Customs Service can include, but is not limited to, the importation of narcotics, child pornography, illegal entrants, illegal commercial fishing, suspect illegal entrant vessels and the non-reporting of currency transfers out of Australia, by whatever means.
