On the week-long holiday, which lasted from February 14 to 20, the agency received 220 documents for import-export transactions from 25 companies, with a total goods value surpassing 7.19 million USD.
A list of customs officers at work throughout the period was posted publicly to facilitate importers and exporters in case of emergency.
Inspection activities were also intensified to prevent goods smuggling and counterfeits, which are likely to be on the rise around Tet.
