Vietnam - China Trade Facilitation Working Group meets for first time
At the first meeting of the Vietnam - China Trade Facilitation Working Group between the Ministry of Industry and Trade (MoIT) and China’s Ministry of Commerce, the MoIT proposed that Vietnam’s northern neighbor restore customs clearance at border gates that have been temporarily closed, restart the importation of fresh fruit and frozen goods at certain border gates, and expand the list of designated border gates for importing fruit, food and certain categories of goods that Vietnamese enterprises are eligible to export. China is Vietnam’s largest import source and second-largest export market, after the US.
