Ms. Tran Thuy Trang, Deputy General Director of Jasan Vietnam Co., Ltd.

After 10 years of investing in Hai Phong, the company has felt a strong and clear change in the administrative reform and facilitation of departments and agencies of Hai Phong City, especially customs reform.
“In the process of customs clearance, the company is always guided enthusiastically by civil servants of the Hai Phong Customs Department. Any problems during the clearance are consulted and solved promptly. Therefore, every year the company carries out thousands of import and export declarations, but they are all cleared quickly and conveniently," said Ms. Tran Thuy Trang.

The import-export business community in the area also appreciated the organization of dialogue conferences with import-export businesses by Hai Phong Customs Department and its affiliated branches.
The dialogue conferences not only help to answer problems in the field of import and export but also are a chance for businesses to raise their difficulties to local authorities.

Sharing with reporters, representatives of many businesses in the area expressed their desire to continue to receive effective companionship and support from Hai Phong Customs to restore and develop production, business and import and export in a sustainable way.
