Enterprises contribute the third largest import-export turnover in the country. As of October 15, the total import-export turnover of goods in Binh Duong province reached over US$46 billion, an increase of over 8.1% over the same period last year. The revenue saw a year-on-year increase of over 16% to VND14,496.5 billion, reaching 86.3% of the target in 2024.

Since the beginning of the year, the department has detected 19 customs offences.

Talking with reporters of Customs Magazine, Mr. Le Ngoc Hoang, representative of the Import and Export Department - Vina Kraft Paper Company Limited, said that “As an enterprise specializing in the production of packaging paper, we carry out about 500 import and export declarations on average per month at Binh Duong Seaport Customs Branch. Handling such a large volume of work, the Company always receives timely support and favorable conditions throughout the customs clearance process at the Branch. This has helped businesses save time and ensure the smooth flow of goods”.

The branch regularly works with enterprises to discuss and resolve difficulties for them, grasps information on production activities and import-export plans to provide appropriate support solutions, and accompanies the recovery and development of production and business of enterprises, Tuan said.

Along with facilitating import-export activities, the Branch has planned to deploy solutions to grasp the situation and manage the area. The will develop a coordination regulation with competent agencies and units to patrol and control the area effectively.

The branch has enhanced effectiveness of mobile container scanners, and combated trade fraud in the area.

Especially, in the context that Vietnam has signed many preferential tariff agreements with the EU, the US, …, goods originating from Vietnam will enjoy preferential tariffs.

Some businesses may take advantage of the incentive policy to import finished products or semi-finished products from abroad to Vietnam, then export them with Vietnamese labels and origins for export. This reduces the competitiveness of Vietnamese-made goods.

To strengthen control and combat commercial fraud, the branch has developed a plan to prevent illegal transportation of goods and fraud in the origin of goods...
