By looking up the compliance level on the Customs Portal, enterprises will identify their compliance level and minimise problems.
The customs information system will automatically assess the compliance level of the firm according to five levels.
Thus, when enterprise looks up the compliance level on the system, it will return results per the following principles:
Compliance level (from 2 to 5) reflects the compliance level of the enterprise at the time of the search.
Compliance reasons: the system will show a higher level of compliance and criteria that the enterprise has failed to meet for level 3, level 4; present the compliance level and the assessment criteria for enterprise ranked level 5. For level 2, the system does not present the reason for compliance as well as the criteria.
Specifically, compliance level 1 is the enterprises recognised as prioritised firms according to the Circular No. 72/2015 dated May 12, 2015 of the Ministry of Finance.
