Hai Hoa Border Guard Station forces maintain 24/7 duty at fixed and mobile teams and posts to control the area.
According to the assessment of the functional forces of Mong Cai City, in recent times, the common illegal goods in the area are mainly food, candy, cosmetics, clothing, electronic cigarettes and many types of consumer goods of unknown origin and of poor quality. The methods and tricks of operation are also increasingly sophisticated and organized. The subjects often take advantage of the dark night and bad weather to transport smuggled goods through trails and openings on the border; using local people to transport, in order to cope with detection and prevention by the functional forces... causing difficulties in inspection and supervision.
According to records at Hai Hoa Border Guard Station (Mong Cai City), in the face of the complicated situation of smuggling and illegal transportation of goods across the border, the unit has proactively deployed professional measures, increased patrols, controls, tightened management of the area and promptly detected and strictly handled violations.

Hai Hoa Border Guard Station coordinated with the authorities to confiscate all the goods and imposed a fine of 25 million VND for illegally transporting goods across the border area with documents proving the legality of the goods.
