16 commodity groups must carry out procedures at import border gates

VCN- The Draft Decision replacing Decision No. 15 / 2017QD-TTg of the Prime Minister on the list of imported goods subject to Customs clearance at the import border gate is currently being widely consulted by the General Department of Vietnam Customs. According to the draft, the list will include 16 commodity groups.

Thus, the new draft reduces a group of goods compared to the current Decision 15/2017 / QD-TTg.

Specifically, a reduced group is the commodity group which affects security and defense. It is expected that this group will be withdrawn from the list due to the fact that the relevant legal documents are strictly managing import licenses (decision of the Prime Minister or the license of Ministry of Industry and Trade).

Thus, the withdrawal of this commodity group out of the list is to help businesses select the Customs Branches which are convenient for import procedures to shorten the clearance time.

Main categories of products are:

Cigarettes, cigars and other tobacco materials for smoking, chewing, sniffing (code: 2401, 2402, 2403);

Alcohol (code: 2204, 2205, 2206, 2207, 2208);
