Dear Sirs,

Unified Road Cargo Manifest for Cross-boundary
Truck Drivers Crossing at Land Boundary Control Points

Further to our circular of 31 December 2003 on the implementation of the unified road cargo manifest for cross-boundary truck drivers crossing at the land boundary control points starting from 1 January 2004, this is to inform the industry that the Hong Kong Customs and Excise Department has prepared a guide (in Chinese) for completion of the unified road cargo manifest. A copy of the guide is at Annex (pdf format) for information.

Enquiries

2. If you have any enquiries about the implementation of the unified road cargo manifest, please contact the Lok Ma Chau Control Point of the Hong Kong Customs at telephone number 2482 8812 between 7 am and 10 pm from Mondays to Fridays or visit their website at http://www.customs.gov.hk/.

Yours faithfully,

(Miss Judy TING)
