Speaking to reporters, Deputy Director of Quang Ninh Customs Department Trinh Van Nhuan said from the beginning of the year, the department requested border gate customs branches to organize meetings at the headquarters of Customs agency and businesses to support, answer and solve difficulties for the business community, thereby promoting import and export activities.

"Motivated by solutions to promote import-export and attract investment through the area, in the first month of 2024, import-export activities through seaports and land border gates all increased in terms of amount and value" Mr. Trinh Van Nhuan said.
As a customs unit managing areas with key import-export activities of Quang Ninh Customs Department, from the beginning of 2024, Mong Cai International Border Gate Customs Branch always ensures smooth operation, contributing to the prosperity of import-export activities.

Further promoting import and export
To promote import and export, the People's Committee of Quang Ninh province requests units (Customs, Border Guard, Market Surveillance...) and border localities (Mong Cai, Hai Ha, Binh Lieu) to comply regulations on customs clearance at border gates and border crossings in the province. In particular, the People's Committee of Quang Ninh province assigns the Quang Ninh Customs Department to preside over specific and timely guidance on commodity policies and customs procedures for import and export goods at border gates and border crossing in the area.
The People's Committee of Quang Ninh province requires units to strengthen management, proactively grasp and remove difficulties and obstacles for businesses and provide timely information and guidance to individuals and organizations carrying out customs procedures at border gates and border crossings of Quang Ninh province in accordance with current regulations.
In addition, Quang Ninh province also requests the People's Committees of Mong Cai, Hai Ha, and Binh Lieu localities to strengthen negotiations and talks with Chinese authorities to ensure sustainable foreign affairs and trade between the two sides. At the same time, the localities preside and coordinate with Customs, Border Guards, Police, Quarantine, and Market Surveillance forces to strengthen inspection and control work, and are responsible to the Provincial People's Committee for security, order, anti-smuggling, trade fraud and counterfeit goods in areas under their management.
As a core force in promoting import and export in the area, Quang Ninh Customs has been developing many solutions, including coordinating with other authorities to well implement this task.
