Since the beginning of the year, the market situation and commodity prices in the province have been basically stable; tourism , trade and service activities have been bustling in many key areas during the holidays and summer tourism, leading to increased consumer demand. However, commodity prices have remained stable, some groups of goods such as fresh food, seafood, transportation services have fluctuated slightly according to the season and holidays, Tet, tourist season... Gasoline prices continue to be adjusted down to the lowest level, creating conditions to stabilize prices of goods affected by gasoline prices and transportation services, promoting production, business, tourism and services.
In 2025, the Provincial Steering Committee 389 will strengthen its leadership, direction, and implementation of tasks and solutions to manage safe areas, effectively prevent and resolutely prevent hot spots, prominent and complicated cases of smuggling, trade fraud and counterfeit goods on key routes and areas. In particular, it has assigned and specified the responsibilities of each sector, each locality, each locality, each management field, ensuring strictness and effectiveness. At the same time, it will focus on directing agencies, units, and People's Committees of localities according to their functions, tasks, authority, and scope of management to continue to resolutely, synchronously, and effectively implement solutions to enhance the responsibility of state agencies in the fight to prevent and repel smuggling, trade fraud, counterfeit goods, and infringement of intellectual property rights. Thereby, it aims to protect the legitimate and legal rights and interests of people and businesses; protect the security and health of consumers.
According to the report of the Steering Committee 389 of Quang Ninh province, in the first 9 months of 2025, the functional forces of Quang Ninh province discovered, arrested and handled a total of 2,453 violations related to smuggling, trade fraud and counterfeit goods, with the value of infringing goods reaching 45.5 billion VND, an increase of 73.8% over the same period in 2024. Of which, 46 cases were criminally prosecuted, with 107 subjects prosecuted, a sharp increase compared to the previous year. Along with that, more than 2,400 cases of administrative violations were also handled. In addition, the Provincial People's Procuracy coordinated with the Provincial Court to conduct trials of 32 cases, with 91 defendants, including 15 typical cases of smuggling, trade fraud and counterfeit goods production crimes, to focus on initiating investigation, prosecution and speedy trial; contribute to propagating and educating the masses on law compliance, deterring and preventing violations of the law.
Among them, cases related to drugs, fireworks, foreign cigarettes, smuggled alcohol and beer, and food of unknown origin all recorded an increasing trend in both scale and sophistication. Notably, the number of violations in the field of e-commerce and transportation of goods via social networking platforms continued to increase sharply, showing a trend of shifting methods of operation of the subjects. The situation of illegal transportation of oyster seeds, seafood, frozen foods, and smuggled consumer goods has also become more complicated, causing great difficulties in management.
In addition to the achieved results, anti-smuggling work still has loopholes that need to be promptly overcome. Data sharing between sectors is sometimes slow, failing to meet the coordination requirements in handling cases involving many routes and many forces. Some control points in sea areas, international border gates, and cargo ports are not fully equipped with modern monitoring equipment, while subjects take advantage of high technology, divide goods, and change delivery methods very quickly. Commercial fraud in cyberspace continues to explode, but the capacity to monitor, trace, and prove violations is still limited. The awareness of law compliance of a number of small businesses is not high, and there is still the act of smuggling goods into the domestic market, especially in the last months of the year when consumer demand increases sharply. These shortcomings create existing risks and require stronger, more focused, and innovative management.
During the peak period of preparation for the Lunar New Year 2026, there will be a risk of an outbreak of smuggling, trade fraud and counterfeit goods. This is because this is the time when people's demand for goods increases sharply, along with price fluctuations of many essential goods, increasing management pressure. Many items such as firecrackers, foreign cigarettes, smuggled alcohol, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, functional foods and electronic goods... will be targeted by smugglers.
Faced with this situation, the Provincial People's Committee has issued consistent, focused and urgent instructions. Quang Ninh requires forces to coordinate closely, share information continuously and update data in real time to improve the effectiveness of detecting and handling violations; apply digital transformation in monitoring border lines, border gates and domestic markets. Along with that, the province requires organizing peak inspection periods before, during and after the Lunar New Year 2026, resolutely and strictly handling all acts of abetting, covering up or lack of responsibility of officials.
At the same time, Quang Ninh will promote propaganda activities in forms suitable for each target group and each locality, in order to raise awareness, create social consensus and build a civilized and healthy business environment. At the same time, strengthen the work of controlling market prices, ensuring the supply of essential goods and preventing hoarding and price inflation...
With high political determination, strong leadership and proactive spirit from early on, Quang Ninh is gradually upgrading the entire front line against smuggling, trade fraud and counterfeit goods. This is an important foundation to protect the domestic market during the year-end shopping season, ensuring the Lunar New Year 2026 takes place safely, healthily and stably, while affirming the province's determination to build a transparent, disciplined and sustainable business environment.
