The General Department of Customs said that the amount paid to the state budget was VND5.48 billion and no additional money was paid to the career development fund.

Accordingly, the General Department of Customs sold 50/52 vehicles at the lowest price of 16 million VND/vehicle, the highest price of more than 240 million VND/vehicle.
The cars for sale, this time are from brands such as Mitsubishi, Ford, Toyota, Daewoo, Zace, Viots... used for about 13-21 years or nearly 300,000 km.
The car with the lowest liquidation price of 16 million VND is UAZ type 31514 used by Thua Thien Hue Customs Department since 2005 and has traveled 265,460 km, with an original price of 249.56 million VND.

Currently, the General Department of Customs said that there are still 2 vehicles serving general work that have not been liquidated according to the decision of the Ministry of Finance because the documents of the 2 vehicles are no longer complete, and the ownership cannot be transferred to the buyer for use and circulation according to the provisions of law. The General Department is coordinating with the relevant archives department to find the documents of these vehicles and is expected to complete the liquidation in the first quarter of 2018.
Regarding the 27 special-purpose vehicles, the General Department of Customs said that these are vehicles serving the tasks of anti-smuggling, anti-drug, customs patrol and supervision, and most of them operate in mountainous, remote and isolated areas. All of the vehicles were damaged, requiring large repair costs and were ineffective. In 2015, the Ministry of Finance approved the equipment and replacement of the heads of these 27 special-purpose vehicles.
