Guide

Location

Everything needed for this quest is located on the Customs map.

  1. Getting the Unknown Key

    • The key can be found on a scav's body in the bushes near the "Welcome to Tarkov" truck (near the Crossroads area).
    • The key spawns in every raid but can be taken by other players. If it’s not there, you can purchase it from the flea market.
  2. Finding the Cargo

    • Use the key to unlock the cabin near Warehouse 4.
    • The cabin is located between the gas station and the port area.
  3. Retrieving the Package

    • Inside the locked cabin, under a jacket, you’ll find the Secure Case for Documents 0048. Pick it up.
  4. Extracting

    • After securing the case, safely extract from the map.
    • It’s advisable to retrieve the case towards the end of the raid when most players have either died or extracted, increasing your chances of survival.

Tips for Success

  • Customs is a highly contested map with frequent firefights. Be prepared for combat.
  • Stick to quieter routes and avoid central areas to minimize encounters with other players.
  • Consider teaming up with a friend to improve your chances of success.
