According to the latest information from Hai Phong Customs Department, in July, the whole Department collected VND4,185 billion.

By the end of July, Hai Phong Customs Department collected VND30,692 billion, reaching 45.8% of the target assigned by the Ministry of Finance (VND67,000 billion), reaching 43.2% of the target of the General Department, down 24.9% over the same period in 2019.

In particular, Hai Phong area collected VND26,865 billion, 47% compared with the target assigned by the Ministry of Finance (VND57,100 billion), 44.1% compared with the target assigned by the General Department of Vietnam Customs, decreasing 23,7% over the same period in 2019.

Among nine Customs Branches under the Hai Phong Customs Department, there are three units with assigned target of revenue collection of VND10,000 billion or more: Hai Phong Port area 1 Customs Branch (VND21,900 billion); Hai Phong port area 3 Customs Branch (VND11,500 billion); Dinh Vu port Customs Branch (VND10,350 billion).

By the end of July, among the three units mentioned above, Hai Phong port area 1 Customs Branch achieved the highest result of revenue collection with VND9,498 billion, but they only reached 43.37%.

The Dinh Vu port Customs Branch has just collected VND4,035 billion, approximately 39%.

To complete the targets assigned by the Ministry of Finance, in the last five months of 2020, the entire Hai Phong Customs Department had to collect VND36,308 billion. This was a very difficult task because this figure was much higher than the average of the first seven months of the year, while import-export activities were still facing many disadvantages due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

Specifically, to complete the estimated targets, the average revenue of the last five months of the year of Hai Phong Customs Department must reach VND7,262 billion, higher than the average revenue of the first seven months of the year by VND2,878 billion.
