UK to help Viet Nam with WTO pact

The United Kingdom will help Viet Nam to implement the World Trade Organisation (WTO) Trade Facilitation Agreement through a technical project that was signed yesterday.

The General Department of Viet Nam Customs and the British Embassy here were the signatories on the document detailing the six-month project, which aims to help review legal documents relating to trade facilitation in the country and organise a conference for drafting a Government proposal on the implementation of the WTO Trade Facilitation Agreement in Viet Nam.

The agreement aims to reduce red-tape in cross-border trade by simplifying the customs and border procedures of WTO members.
