The scientific novelty of the article consists in the fact that the authors for the first time single out this issue for special study and find out the historical reasons that led to the involvement of military personnel in the activities of customs officers, determine the forms of customs supervision in which Streltsy, soldiers and their commanders participated, identify problems that existed in the activities of customs, sea and land outposts and prevented successful implementation of customs policy. The authors conclude that the increase in the effectiveness of customs supervision during the reign of Peter I, in addition to the gradual reorganization of the customs system and the introduction of the practice of analyzing the activities of customs and outposts, was also facilitated by the use of military personnel for guard duty, guarding outposts and conducting operational investigative activities, and the adoption of legislative acts aimed at strengthening the discipline and responsibility of army and customs officers. The relevance of the study is determined by the importance of using the historical experience in organizing joint work of various departments and paramilitary organizations to counter threats to the economic security of the country.
