VOV.VN - As many as 1,611 vehicles carrying goods have been cleared to pass through Lang Son border gates since China moved to reopen its border on January 8.
Hoang Khanh Duy, deputy head of the Management Board of Dong Dang - Lang Son border gate economic zone, said customs clearance activities have improved two days on since the northern neighbour’s reopening.
Tthe number of trucks for exports, mainly fruit trucks reached 593 whilst the number of vehicles imported into Vietnam stands at 1,018.
Duy emphasised that with customs clearance activities being eased, the transportation costs of enterprises will be further reduced while the demand for goods exchange among firms of the two countries will also increase.
He predicts that with the Lunar New Year drawing near, the volume of goods passing through border gates will not suddenly increase but will instead remain stable.
Moving forward over the coming days, between 400 and 500 vehicles of goods are expected to be cleared each day via the border gates.
