HCM City — The Ministry of Defence’s Command of Border Guard officially launched its one-stop portal to link with the Viet Nam National Single Window (VNSW) on Thursday.

This is the fifth ministry to be linked with the VNSW by Viettel Group.

The one-stop portal has been implemented since April 29 in seven seaports around the nation, including the northern province and city of Quang Ninh and Hai Phong; central cities of Quy Nhon, Nha Trang and Da Nang; and southern cities of Vung Tau and HCM City.

It has helped renovate administrative procedures.

For the first month, the system has received and solved 2,800 procedures for transit, immigration of 1,800 ships, 33,000 sailors and 680 passengers.

The electronic registration for border guard administrative procedures for transit and immigrated ships has cut waiting time in half, saving expenditure to dock in ports.

At the first stage of the project, Viettel has adjusted and added more functions for two of the ministry’s four procedures to integrate the system with the VNSW.

In the coming time, Viettel will invest more high quality human resource for the second stage of the project. — VNS
