Luu Van Do, Director of Do Van Tourism Service and Trading Co., Ltd said that in recent times, thanks to timely support from Mong Cai Customs Branch, enterprises were facilitated in handling customs clearance. For example, during the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic, the Customs Branch maintained a business support group to receive documents from remote, as well as responding to all questions of businesses via email and hotlines 24/7. This was also a condition for ensuring smooth operation of cargo clearance process, without causing congestion of goods.
"In addition, Mong Cai Customs Branch implemented software to develop Customs-business partnerships. Enterprises only needed to login to the system to respond and interact with Customs authorities at all times, everywhere, limiting direct contact between Customs officials and businesses," Do emphasised.
