The meeting aimed to discuss the organization of delivery and receipt methods for import and export goods via customs clearance points and dedicated cargo transport routes at the Huu Nghi – Youyi Guan international border gate pair.
During their talks, the two sides exchanged views on the handling methods for two-way import and export goods. Discussions covered various aspects, including enterprises declaring and registering their import-export needs in advance with the competent authorities; management of transport schedules and cargo delivery procedures between both sides; control over loading and unloading locations; management of vehicles and goods involved in two-way deliveries; and the coordination of immigration activities at clearance points.
Both sides expressed their hope that the outcomes of the discussion will continue to improve the efficiency of customs clearance activities at the customs clearance points and dedicated transport routes of the Huu Nghi – Youyi Guan international border gate pair.
According to the Dong Dang Border Gate Economic Zone Authority, thanks to ongoing coordination and consensus in border gate management, import and export activities via these routes have seen smooth, stable, and robust growth throughout 2025.
