Coordination with Other Agencies
Without good working relationship among relevant agencies, effective import control cannot be achieved. There are many people involved in the process – officials from other divisions of the Thai FDA, the Medical Sciences Department, the Customs Department, the Ministry of Commerce, the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Agriculture and Agricultural Cooperatives, etc. In addition, inputs from private companies are helpful in enhancing the efficiency of the work process at the checkpoints. One of the things to keep in mind is that “procedures taken at the checkpoints should not be too lengthy and burdensome to decent importers”
