Continue to temporarily suspend the import and re-export of round timber and sawn timber from natural forests in Laos and Cambodia.
5 years ago, on November 15, 2018, the Ministry of Industry and Trade issued Circular No. 44/2018/TT-BCT regulating the temporary suspension of business in temporary import and re-export of round timber and sawn timber from natural forests from Laos and Cambodia. This Circular is effective until December 31, 2023.
After 5 years of implementation, the Ministry of Industry and Trade has conducted a review and assessment of the implementation of Circular No. 44/2018/TT-BCT. Based on the results of the summary and assessment, to avoid legal gaps when Circular No. 44/2018/TT-BCT expires, the Ministry of Industry and Trade issued Circular No. 21/2023/TT-BCT dated November 14, 2023, regulating the temporary suspension of business in temporary import and re-export of round timber and sawn timber from natural forests from Laos and Cambodia.
Accordingly, continue to maintain policies to limit illegal exploitation, transportation and trade of wood across borders, and control the situation of traders taking advantage of regulations on temporary import and re-export of round timber and sawn timber to commit commercial fraud.
Continue to implement policy mechanisms and measures to improve the effectiveness of forest management and forest product management.
