ngram shows that without 'the' is less common, but not non-existent.
That’s because CUSTOMS can also be the customs/traditions/practices of a country.
When I decided to marry Amira, I proposed to her privately, but decided to go through the customs and ask her father and brothers for her hand publicly.
Yes, in some cases it's "the customs formalities/procedure/...", but not all
so you’re telling me that when it’s about airport customs we should use the article?
No, it's just an observation. I am not that good at articles to tell you anything.
