I don't know if you're aware, but bonded warehouses are customs facilities. The vast majority of goods never pass through a Government customs facility.

In which countries are they legally identical, or even mostly identical, to the customs facilities commonly found in international airports?

I am not the parent, but they did not say bonded warehouses were identical to government customs facilities at airports.

Hence why I also said ‘or even mostly identical’?

If it’s only vaguely similar in fact, then that seems hardly convincing.
