A statement on cooperation and support to help Viet Nam implement the World Trade Organization (WTO)’s trade facilitation agreement was inked on January 12 in Ha Noi.
The VTIP will be designed to assist exporters, importers and logistics providers and related Governmental agencies and help get access to regulations, standardization and information related to tariff as well as reduce mistakes related to imports and exports.
The portal is aimed at supporting businesses and related sides to find necessary and effective information to create favorable conditions for trade activities.
Earlier on April 16, 2015, the Government Office issued a document on the Prime Minister’s conclusion regarding administrative reform in the customs sector, under which the National Steering Committee on ASEAN and National One-Stop Shop Mechanisms is expected to play the role of the National Committee on Trade Facilitation./.
