In addition, following Decision 23/2019/QD-TTg on the List of import goods subject to customs procedures at the entry border gate, enterprises are allowed to carry out customs procedures for many items at customs branches outside the border gates more than those specified under Decision 15/2017/QD-TTg, which also significantly affects the revenue of Hai Phong Department. At the same time, some local customs departments have also put ICDs into operation such as ICD Long Bien and ICD Tan Cang Ha Nam, thus reducing the number of businesses implementing customs procedures in Hai Phong.

Vietnam continues to participate in many free trade agreements (FTAs) with higher requirements and must fully comply with international commitments, including tariffs, market access and intellectual property, which affects Vietnam’s economy and the import and export activities. Vietnam has negotiated and participated in 16 FTAs, of which 14 FTAs have taken effect; some agreements have reduced and eliminated tariffs, such as the ASEAN Trade in Goods Agreement, andASEAN-China Free Trade Area Agreement which have entered the last time for tariff elimination,the special preferential import tax rate of most commodity streams have been cut to 0%.

“Meanwhile, the revenue of businesses with tax codes in Hai Phong only accounts for 13%-15% of the total revenue of Hai Phong area,” Khanh said.
