Mr. Dang Thanh Dung said that Deputy Director of Quang Nam Customs Department said that the department’s leaders have understood difficulties of customs officers at the border gate, given priority and supported the officers in performance and instructed to resolve obstacles. The leaders also proposed the senior leaders to equip advanced machinery to server the working performance at the branch. The department will allocate more human resource for the branch.
To meet requirements for customs clearance for goods and vehicles, in the last months of the year, the branch continues to effectively process customs procedures for imported-exported and transited goods, vehicles temporarily exported for re-imported, temporarily imported for re-exported; strictly check luggage of people on exit ad entry.
The branch will review and guide businesses to declare product names to apply HS codes and apply tax rates in accordance with regulations; strictly inspect and supervise the import and export of goods, means of transport, and luggage of people on exit and entry, and prevent the trafficking and transportation of wild animals and drugs across borders. Strengthen patrols and control of cross-border activities of people and businesses, especially petroleum products carried on vehicles showing signs of illegal transportation across the border gate.
To overcome the lack of human resources, the branch promotes the IT application in handling administrative procedures. Implement the innovation project on one-stop-shop mechanism in handling administrative procedures; implement the system of declaring, receiving, checking and confirming the e-manifest of imported goods information under to Official Dispatch No. 1790/TCHQ-GSQL dated April 17, 2023 of the General Department of Vietnam Customs... to create the most favorable conditions for businesses and people.
