Accordingly, from September 1, the border gate will be opened daily from 7am to 8pm (Vietnam time), including holidays and weekends (excluding New Year holidays), for a three-month trial.

Mong Cai also proposed that Dongxing reduce customs clearance fees for businesses, improve efficiency in handling import and export goods at the Mong Cai-Dongxing Border Gate pair, and adopt flexible goods control mechanisms similar to those at other Vietnam-China border crossings.

Regarding the construction of Bac Luan III bridge, both cities recognised the importance of connecting transportation infrastructure and gradually opening the Bac Luan III Border Gate. This development is critical for advancing trade and import-export activities between Vietnam and China, as well as between Mong Cai and Dongxing. They agreed on this plan and will seek further approval for implementation from higher authorities.

Additionally, the two sides also agreed to enhance cross-border tourism cooperation, address labour issues, and promote friendly exchanges between the border communities.
