What is Import-Export and Why is it Important?
According to Vietnam’s Commercial Law, import and export are the buying and selling of goods between traders. Export is the process of moving goods out of a country’s territory (Vietnam) to sell to foreign partners, while import is the purchase of goods from abroad and bringing them into Vietnam.
With a trade surplus of over US$20.5 billion in the first 11 months of 2025 (exports US$430.1 billion, imports US$409.6 billion), import and export play a crucial role in economic development. This activity creates jobs for millions of workers, increases foreign exchange reserves, and promotes technology transfer. Vietnam is aiming to be among the top 15 countries with the largest trade volume in the world.
Import-Export in International Trade: A Golden Opportunity for Enterprises
Post-pandemic, global supply chains have shifted, creating huge opportunities for Vietnam. Free Trade Agreements such as EVFTA, CPTPP, RCEP, and VKFTA have opened markets of over 1.5 billion consumers with significant tariff incentives.
The US is currently Vietnam’s largest export market, while China is the most important import partner. Notably, the FDI sector contributes more than 76% of export turnover, demonstrating Vietnam’s deep integration into import-export in international trade.
B2B E-commerce is booming, reducing barriers for SMEs to access the global market. From agricultural products to technology and electronics every sector has the opportunity to expand and diversify risks instead of relying solely on the domestic market.
The FTA opens doors to over 1.5 billion consumers – a golden opportunity for every business!

International Transport Import-Export: Choosing Right to Optimize Costs
Selecting the appropriate shipping method directly affects the efficiency of international transport import-export.
- Sea Freight: Has the lowest cost, suitable for large-volume goods like rice and rubber. However, transit time is long and weather-dependent.
- Air Freight: Fast and safe, ideal for high-value goods like electronics and pharmaceuticals. The downside is high cost and volume limitations.
- Road Freight: Flexible with door-to-door delivery capabilities, suitable for trade with neighboring countries.
- Multimodal Transport: Combining various vehicles optimizes both cost and time by using sea freight for long distances and road freight for the final leg, helping save 30-50% compared to pure air freight.
Effective logistics management through GPS technology, IoT, and cooperation with reputable partners helps minimize risks and optimize warehousing and handling costs.

Import-Export Increasing Revenue and Profit: Practical Strategies
Participating in import-export brings opportunities for breakthrough revenue growth when accessing markets of hundreds of millions of consumers. Many Vietnamese enterprises have grown 2-3 times after just a few years of exporting. Profit margins also improve significantly as selling prices in international markets are 3-4 times higher than domestic ones.
For import-export to increase revenue and profit effectively, businesses need to research the market thoroughly, position products to fit local culture, and build a solid partner network. Leveraging tax incentives through FTAs with 0% tax rates helps optimize costs and increase competitiveness.
Risk management is also crucial: using Letters of Credit (L/C) to reduce payment risks, forward contracts to hedge against exchange rate risks, cargo insurance to protect assets, and market diversification to reduce political risks.
