The Ministry of Industry and Trade has recommended enterprises to only transport goods to Cambodian border gates after localities of the two sides have medical quarantine in place during the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.
The recommendation was issued after the Cambodian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation announced on March 18 the suspension of activities at the country’s border gates with Việt Nam following developments of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The ministry said Vietnamese citizens’ entry into Cambodia and Cambodian citizens’ entry into Việt Nam by road, water or air are suspended from 11:59pm on March 20. This measure is designed to prevent any inconvenience caused by quarantine requirements for citizens of both countries, according to the Cambodian ministry.
