On September 12, Mr. Vu Duy Hai – Chairman of the Board of Directors, General Director of Vinacam reflected: Currently, there are a number of DAP fertilizer shipments being imported to the port, but customs clearance procedures have not been completed because the decision to impose trade defense tax has expired since September 7, but so far there has been no supplementary or replacement document, the customs authority is confused and does not know how to resolve the issue, so customs clearance is temporarily impossible. “This is causing difficulties for our business as we prepare for production for the upcoming crop,” said Mr. Hai.
