Specifically, according to the sharing of the Director of the Department of Information Technology and Customs Statistics (General Department of Customs), Mr. Le Duc Thanh, currently, the customs information technology system is processing a very large amount of data.

With the increasing volume of customs clearance work for import and export of goods while production activities are still recovering and our country is welcoming a large flow of foreign investment, if not promptly upgraded, the information technology system of the Customs sector will hardly be able to meet the rapid growth rate of import and export turnover and other workloads.

On August 6, 2024, the Customs Information Technology System and National Single Window encountered technical problems that needed to be fixed.

The General Department of Customs has urgently deployed technical and professional measures to overcome the problem. As a result, many businesses have been unable to declare procedures for shipments, affecting their import and export activities.

By the end of September 2024, the entire Customs sector had processed procedures for more than 12.1 million import-export declarations.

Of which, green lane declarations account for 65.95% (equivalent to nearly 8 million declarations) exempted from document inspection and physical inspection of goods.

In the past 9 months, nationwide, there were 6 Customs Departments with more than 1 million import-export declarations/unit, including: Ho Chi Minh City (2,508,718 declarations); Hai Phong (1,875,252 declarations); Hanoi (1,238,345); Bac Ninh (1,442,601 declarations); Binh Duong (1,423,739 declarations); Dong Nai (1,058,629 declarations).

Regarding import-export turnover, updated from the beginning of the year to October 15, it reached 610.57 billion USD, an increase of 16.4%, equivalent to an increase of 85.82 billion USD compared to the same period in 2023. Thus, on average, import-export turnover reached more than 2.1 billion USD per day.

Regarding budget revenue, the whole industry collected 306,312 billion VND, equal to 81.7% of the assigned estimate for the whole year, up 13.5% over the same period last year.
