In the first phase of the pilot resumption, the gate will allow the passing of 40 boats of cassava flour to Dongxing city of China.
The boats have to meet a series of requirements, including having registration certificates issued by Mong Cai city, COVID-19 prevention equipment, and tracking devices.
The clearance time is set to run from 8am to 4pm (Vietnam time).
Earlier, Mong Cai had developed a disease control plan to ensure a safe zone for customs clearance of goods traded between the sides. Accordingly, all people entering the border gate area must show a negative PCR test result for SARS-CoV-2 virus which is valid within 48 hours, or undergo quick tests on the site with a negative result.
Quang Ninh shares a 132.8km land border with Fangcheng district and Dongxing city of China’s Guangxi province.
