China and Vietnam issued a joint statement on October 14, in which the two sides jointly announced that the China-Vietnam Detian (Banyue) Waterfall Cross-border Tourism Cooperation Zone was officially put into operation. The China-Vietnam Detian (Banyo) Waterfall Cross-border Tourism Cooperation Zone will start trial operation on September 15, 2023, and is the first cross-border tourism cooperation zone in mainland China. After the cooperation zone is put into official operation, the relevant departments will further optimize the cross-border tour mode for tourists:
The first is to expand the scale. The number of cross-border visitors has been increased from a limit of 500 to 1,000 per person per day, and is dynamically adjusted according to the number of cross-border tourists in a single day.
The second is to extend the time. The opening hours of the cooperation zone have been adjusted from 10:00-17:00 Beijing time to 09:00-18:00, and the tour time of each tour group on the other side has been extended from 5 hours to 6 hours.
The third is to optimize cross-border procedures. Using the "face brushing office" method to apply for a permit, tourists can make an appointment in the "Gui Police Office" applet, which can realize automatic authentication and complete the appointment, and realize the "one-window service" for entry and exit, household administration, and traffic police; Tourists with passports do not need to apply for other documents, and can enter the cooperation zone after being organized by the operator of the scenic spot.
The fourth is to simplify the declaration procedures for carrying items. Simplify the declaration procedures for tourists to carry cameras, video cameras and other common equipment, and use new technology means to check personnel and belongings, so as to provide a new experience of non-inductive customs clearance.
