HCMC – Mong Cai international border gate will suspend border trade during the Lunar New Year holiday from February 10 to February 17, said Tran Bich Ngoc, head of the Mong Cai International Border Gate’s Management Board.
China, on the other hand, plans to resume customs clearance for imported goods starting from March 12 through Dongxing international gate. The focus will primarily be on frozen goods and those temporarily imported for re-export originating from Vietnam.
Both nations will continue to provide immigration services throughout the holiday period.
Trade data for the period from January 1 to February 4 showed a significant 49% increase compared to the same period in 2023, with over 132,900 tons of goods passing through the Mong Cai border gate.
From the beginning of the year until February 4, nearly 682,000 people crossed the Mong Cai border gate, including 337,400 incoming people.
