The customs sector is gradually shifting from pre-clearance inspection to post-clearance inspection, strengthening management through electronic data platforms while still ensuring effective inspection and supervision.

From June 1, 2026, the Customs Department will pilot a centralised customs clearance model for imported and exported goods at Customs Sub-department Region III. The implementation of the new model aims to move towards paperless procedures, streamline processes, improve the effectiveness of state management, and create more favourable conditions for enterprises’ import and export activities.

On May 11, the Viet Nam Customs Department held a conference to review performance in April 2026 and carry out tasks for May 2026.
