The Ho Chi Minh City Border Guard has reduced the number of documents and papers from nine to five, including two obligated ones which has shortened the border procedures for one ship from 60-90 minutes to around ten to 15 minutes. Besides, thanks to applying 2D barcode printing, the control time of one permit has been shortened from two to three minutes to now 30 seconds per person.
From 2020 up to now, 100 percent of the documents and papers have been handled as scheduled without any complaints from people or enterprises.
Senior Lieutenant General Le Huy Vinh proposed the People’s Committee of Ho Chi Minh City continue to implement the missions of administrative reforms associated with digital transformation and support the investment of modern equipment and devices to enhance the quality of border checking in Ho Chi Minh City ports meeting the requirement of international integration.
