VCN- Improving the management efficiency for a declaration of the goods codes is one of the measures ...

However, the volume of analysis and classification sample was quite large, and many commodities were complicated and difficult to analyze and classify. Thereby, it required the professional skills of the Customs officers in charge of analysis and classification. Meanwhile, the number of these officers was still small, affecting the time of issuing the results of analysis and classification

Hence, in 2018, Customs Department of Goods Verification will strengthen internal inspection and promptly guide and answer obstacles in the process of classification and analysis for imported and exported goods. It will effectively complete and put into operation Customs Branches of Goods Verification in Ha Noi, Lang Son, and Quang Ninh. It will also expand Vilas targets and establish labs to meet Vilas standards at Customs Branches of Goods Verification that have been newly established, and arrange for human resources in charge of analysis and classification to promptly issue these results in accordance with provisions and facilitation for businesses.
