Question: 18707:

Our company currently wants to import glass products from Malaysia to Vietnam for domestic sale. The HS code of the imported goods is 70052990. Please advise on the customs procedures required for import into Vietnam: licenses, etc.

Regarding the above issue, Dong Nai Customs Department provides the following comments:

– “Glass” products are not prohibited from import and are not subject to conditional import under Government Decree 187/2013/ND-CP dated November 20, 2013. Therefore, the company may import them as ordinary goods.

“Glass” products are not included in the List of imported goods subject to state quality inspection upon import under Government Decision 50/QD-TTg dated March 7, 2006.

However, various types of construction glass are included in the List of construction-glass products and goods potentially causing safety risks and the basis for quality inspection issued under Circular 11/2009/TT-BXD dated June 18, 2009 of the Ministry of Construction. Therefore, quality management of imported construction glass must comply with Article 4 of the above-mentioned Circular 11/2009/TT-BXD.

– Import customs procedures shall be carried out in accordance with Article 16 of Circular 38/2015/TT-BTC dated March 25, 2015 of the Ministry of Finance on customs procedures; customs inspection and supervision; export and import duties; and tax administration for exported and imported goods.

The company is requested to refer to the above regulations for implementation. If any issues arise, the company should directly contact the Customs Sub-department where the declaration is registered for specific guidance.
