Failure to submit the notice on the use of duty-free goods within the prescribed time limit will result in an administrative penalty following Point b, Clause 3, Article 7 of Decree No. 128/2020/ND-CP dated October 19, 2020, of the Government on sanctioning of administrative violations in the field of customs.
