SUMMARY
Imported used clothing is a big problem for the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia, there are many factors that make used clothing illegal, ranging from harming domestic clothing producers to threatening public health because it contains various kinds of bacteria and infectious diseases. This study will examine the role of the Directorate General of Customs and Excise against the ban on the import of used clothing and the obstacles in implementing the ban on imported used clothing in Bandar Lampung. The type of research used in this research is normative-empirical legal research and descriptive research type. The problem approach used is normative-empirical. The data used are primary data and tertiary legal materials. Data processing is carried out by examining data, reconstructing data, and data systematics. The collected data was then analyzed qualitatively. The results of the research and discussion show that the Directorate General of Customs and Excise at the Bandar Lampung Regional Office has an important role in supervising imported goods entering the Lampung area, this is stipulated in the Regulation of the Director General of Customs and Excise Number 53 of 2010 concerning Management of Supervision of the Director General Customs and Excises. The obstacles faced by the Directorate General of Customs and Excise in carrying out the task of supervising imported goods that are prohibited from entering are 1. high demand; 2. lack of socialization of regulations; 3. geographic location; 4. Human resources that do not support. These factors make it difficult for the Directorate General of Customs and Excise to supervise. This shows that the role in carrying out supervision carried out by the Directorate General of Customs and Excise is still not effective and has been realized until now.
