AD Ports Group has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the General Department of Vietnam Customs (GDVC) to explore developing digital trade solutions for the country’s customs department.
Under the MoU, AD Ports Group and GDVC will assess a range of possibilities to cooperate on a Single Window trade solution, customs and border solution, a trade management and risk management platform, as well as artificial intelligence-supported digital trade solutions.
