Smuggling of goods can be investigated from various economic, social, political, and cultural dimensions by considering domestic and international law. The purpose of this study is to analyze the status of goods smuggling from the perspective of international economic law with an emphasis on the legal status of Iran. The Anti-Trafficking in Goods and Foreign Exchange Law the Nairobi Conventions, the United Nations, and the World Trade Organization, define the smuggling of goods and currency and its various dimensions. The destructive and harmful effects of smuggling on sustainable development include declining employment, increasing economic crime, cultural aggression, corruption, the class gap in society.
