To ensure security, safety and achieve the highest efficiency of the conference, Vietnam Customs has reported to the Ministry of Finance and the Government on the organization of this important event.
Also, Deputy Director General Nguyen Van Tho said, Vietnam Customs is implementing the Customs Development Strategy for 2030. Under the Strategy, Vietnam Customs sets the goal of "Taking reform and modernization as the basis; modernizing the customs management model as the focus, accelerating digital transformation in the Customs industry as the foundation for customs development in the new period. Therefore, the 2023 Technology Conference and Exhibition is an opportunity for Vietnam Customs to receive and consult science and technology and learn from experience in applying and using high technology from Customs administrations and WCO.
