The provincial Customs Department said the sum is equivalent to 76% of this year’s target.
In particular, the customs sub-department at Cam Pha Port has collected an estimated over 4 trillion VND for the budget, representing more than 60% of this year’s target.
Head of the sub-department Ngo Xuan Hiep said the coal import volume surged during the first months of 2024, so revenue from this commodity makes up over 90% of his unit’s total collection.
Coal imported via Cam Pha is predicted to reach 17 - 20 million tonnes this year, he noted.
The Quang Ninh Customs Department was assigned to collect more than 13 trillion VND for the state budget in 2024.
To that end, it will continue ordering its subordinate units to take drastic actions, including reviewing the revenue sources that still have room to be tapped into, and preventing losses.
The department is coordinating with authorities at border gates to effectively take measures for attracting businesses, increasing the volume of goods traded through the province, accelerating customs clearance, and facilitating export and import via border gates and crossings. It will also perfect and improve working groups’ capacity to better give guidance to and settle obstacles facing businesses, the Department added.
