HO CHI MINH CITY, Aug. 28 (Xinhua) -- The Customs Department of Ho Chi Minh City has deployed the Vietnam Automated System for Seaport Customs Management (VASSCM) for more than 60 businesses dealing in ports, warehouses and yards in the city, local media reported Tuesday.
The implementation of this new management system allows customs declarants not to show paper documents when delivering goods through the customs supervision area as before, which reduces costs, daily newspaper Vietnam News reported.
In addition, it helps port operators, warehouses and yards strictly control the goods put into operation, taking the initiative in loading and unloading, raising the capacity of exploiting and releasing goods and reducing costs by minimizing paperwork between the parties.
It is expected that in September this year, it will be implemented at all ports, warehouses and other places in the city.
