The e-customs procedures will be applied for all import and export activities, and then to other fields.

As scheduled, e-customs will be piloted at the Gia Thụy Customs Office in October and the Outsourcing Investment Customs Office and the Bắc Thăng Long Industrial Park Customs Office in December before being introduced to all other customs offices in the city by the end of 2011.

In 2009, e-customs software systems will be used to manage all forms of import and export, including business, outsourcing, and import of input materials for the production of exports.

The municipal customs department is in charge of managing import and export activities in Hà Nội and the neighbor provinces of Bắc Ninh, Vĩnh Phúc, Phú Thọ, Hòa Bình and Yên Bái where there are big industrial parks and hi-tech zones with many foreign investors.
