Nearly 55,800 tonnes of agricultural products were exported via border gates in the northern province of Lạng Sơn during the recent five-day holidays starting April 27.

The Border Gates Management Centre under the Đồng Đăng-Lạng Sơn Border Gate Economic Zone Management Board announced on May 2 that during the five-day holidays, authorities conducted customs clearance procedures for over 5,300 vehicles, including more than 2,100 vehicles that carried fruits for export. Hữu Nghị and Tân Thanh international border gates were still the busiest ones.

During the period, import-export activities at Lạng Sơn Province's border gates were stable and smooth as local border gate authorities promptly notified businesses about the time for customs clearance. Employees were assigned to resolve arising problems during the holidays.

Customs units assigned leaders, officers and civil servants to handle customs procedures and guide businesses and goods owners to make online declarations. The border guard force worked around the clock to instruct and direct the flow of vehicles entering and exiting the border gates. — VNS
