In the context that the global economy and production activities of businesses have been hit hard by Covid-19, the Customs sector has quickly supported, strongly applied IT and advised the competent authorities to provide instructions and remove problems to help the business community stand firm, minimize damage and risks, which has been highly appreciated by the business community.
Hoang Quang Phong, Vice President of Vietnam Chamber of Commerce and Industry (VCCI), said that the Tax and Customs sectors play an important role in the production and business activities of enterprises, State revenue and the creation of an open and convenient business environment.
“The business community always recognized the strong reforms of the Ministry of Finance, specifically the Tax and Customs sectors, in accompanying, sympathizing, sharing and guiding procedures for businesses to comply with the provisions of the law. In particular, many problems of businesses have been understood, discussed and resolved by the Tax and Customs, bringing great peace of mind to the business community,” Phong said.
In recent years, the Ministry of Finance has always been a leading authority in administrative procedure reform. In particular, the Tax and Customs authorities have held conferences and seminars to promptly grasp the difficulties of businesses to provide solutions to remove them, especially amid the production and business activities of enterprises affected by Covid-19.

Most specifically, in 2020, when the pandemic was spreading, most of the company's production and business activities weredelayed, while many orders with foreign partners are affected.
However, with the great efforts and enthusiastic support of the management authorities, including Customs, the company has ensuredproduction kept pace with market demand. When implementing export procedures for the company’s orders, Customs officers have directly discussed with the company about new policies and instructed the company for fast customs clearance, reducing costs and helping businesses overcome difficulties.

However, customs has facilitated all operationsof the businesses across Lang Son Border Gate through fast customs clearance, helping the businesses put goods into production.
