After more than three years affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, the full restoration of activities at the pair of border gates helpsfacilitate the exchange of goods and the travel of people of the two countries.

Head of the management board of the Ma Lu Thang Border GateEconomic Zone Vu Huy Hoa said the authorities of Honghe and Jinping districts of Yunnan province have sent a document to Vietnam announcing the cancellation of all COVID-19 quarantine measures for goods, and the full resumption of entry-exit for citizens of the two countries via the border gates.

As such, the People's Committee of Lai Chauprovince decided to stop the application of “green zones” for import - export of goodsvia the Ma Lu Thang international border gate.
