In 2024, the General Department of Customs was assigned by the National Assembly to estimate the State budget revenue at VND375,000 billion. The estimate was built on the basis of GDP growth of 6-6.5% and crude oil price of USD70/barrel.
To complete the assigned tasks, from the beginning of the year, the General Director requested that the units under the General Department focus resources to drastically and synchronously implement solutions, including a group of solutions to facilitate trade and a group of solutions to prevent budget loss.

Specifically, the General Department requires units to strengthen the fight against revenue loss through inspection and supervision of customs procedures, tax management, post-clearance inspection, specialized inspection, internal inspection, and the fight against smuggling and trade fraud.
Units must focus resources on synchronously implementing solutions such as strictly checking the quantity, weight, type, name of goods; value of imported and exported goods; classifying goods, applying codes and tax rates; origin of goods; implementing tax exemption/reduction/refund/incentives; proactively reviewing, classifying, collecting and handling tax debts; monitoring imported and exported goods and means of transport.
In 2023, in the context of difficult import-export activities, the total budget revenue of the Customs sector will only reach about 376,000 billion VND, equal to 86% of the assigned estimate and down 16% compared to the same period in 2022.
The state budget revenue of the customs sector in January 2024 was 30,648 billion VND, reaching 8.2% of the estimate, up 13.2% over the same period last year.
