Leaders of Quang Tri Customs Department, La Lay Border Gate Customs Branch, Hoanh Son Group Joint Stock Company, Border Guard Station of La Lay International Border Gate press the button to officially launch the software system.

Following the direction of the leaders of Quang Tri Customs Department on researching and building “Transport management software system of Hoanh Son Group Joint Stock Company at La Lay Border Gate Customs Branch”, after the pilot implementation and the assistance by Technical Division (Quang Tri Customs Department) and Hoanh Son Group, La Lay Border Gate Customs Branch has completed the software system, which was approved by the GDVC and officially launched from December 6.

Leaders of La Lay Border Gate Customs Branch and Hoanh Son Group Joint Stock Company signed a Memorandum of Understanding.

The official operation of the software system brings many benefits to both Customs administration and businesses.

The use of the software reduces the customs clearance time from 3-6 minutes for each vehicle.

Each vehicle is issued a management code (QR code). The Customs officer uses the code for supervision. The software system will automatically search for all information related to the means of transport on entry and exit and display it on the interface for Customs officers to check and then confirm customs clearance.

The software system is designed to separate the confirmation function for each regime of vehicles temporarily imported for re-export, temporarily export for re-import, and automatically identifies and limits errors for Customs officers in confirming customs clearance.

Enforcement forces at La Lay International Border Gate and representatives of the company visit the official operation of the software system.

In addition, the statistical work is carried out under information criteria such as time, license plate, vehicle operator and vehicle owner.

If the QR code scanning device errors, the software system allows Customs officers to enter the declaration number and automatically display the information to confirm customs clearance.

Customs officers runs the software system.
