Specifically, Lang Son Customs proposed the Chinese side maintain the customs clearance of goods exported from Vietnam to China to facilitate the export of enterprises’ fresh fruit products.
However, the Chinese side said the goods transportation across the residential areas at the couple border check point of Lung Vai (Bang Tuong)-Coc Nam (Lang Son) does not meet requirements of goods inspection and control. Therefore, to ensure requirements, the Chinese side will build a specialised route to transport goods.
