Border Gates

Before the Covid-19 pandemic, an average of 7.5 million Chinese tourists traveled to Vietnam each year, accounting for one-third of the country's total international visitors.

Measures are being devised by two countries’ authorities to remove truck congestion at the Vietnam-China border.

In two border gates of Huu Nghi and Chi Mai in Lang Son province, over 4.2 millions of medical face masks were exported to China from January 29 – February 3.

A strong decline in bilateral trade turnover was due to the long Lunar New Year break in January and impacts from the outbreak of the new coronavirus (nCoV) in China.

The ongoing epidemic is predicted to impact the trade flow of agricultural products between Vietnam and China in six to eight months.
