HÀ NỘI - Entry procedures into Việt Nam have been conducted for the first passenger transport vehicles passing through the customs gate of Bắc Luân II Bridge, which is part of the Móng Cái (Quảng Ninh, Việt Nam) - Dongxing (Guangxi, China) international border gate pair.

The implementation of passenger transport between Quảng Ninh’s Hạ Long City and Guangxi’s Nanning city aims to boost overall tourism development and diversify its products in the northern Vietnamese coastal province and its renowned destination - the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Hạ Long Bay.

Prior to the allowance of the activity, the Quảng Ninh Department of Transport issued a notification letter listing businesses and non-periodic passenger transport vehicles from China operating on the route between the border areas of Việt Nam and China, specifically the route between Nanning and Hạ Long cities.

Measures have been taken to assist businesses involved in expediting customs procedures conveniently at the Bắc Luân II Bridge customs gate, as well as to ensure strict inspection, supervision, and management of temporarily imported-exported transport vehicles and passengers’ luggage on passenger transport vehicles in accordance with the two countries’ laws and their bilateral road transport agreement.
