Exporting to Vietnam

[utst10 0]

Does anyone know how difficult it is to export and import to and from Vietnam?

Any good exporting companies to use?

What about local jurisdiction in Vietnam?

DHL is the company I would use depending on how large of a scale you are talking about. Getting things out of Vietnam is easy, because it was bought here, you only have to worry about import duties in the US, as far as importing, you will have to pay tax. For instance, I imported a phone here the total wasabout $450 I had to pay 1 million dong in tax. I shipped college books here, paid $800 total and my tax was 800,000 dong and this was for 4 books. Usually they charge you 10% unless it is high end stuff.

I hear you can rent space on a cargo container with DHL which makes it cheaper in the long run, but also expensive up front, like I said it just depends on what scale you are talking about. If you are talking a little here and a little there, use the post office, and mark everything as a gift, be stingy on marking the actual price and say it costs less, this way you pay less tax. Hope this helps

I heard many people are very successful with the exporting American stuffs and selling them in Vietnam. Apparently, they made huge profit. But I think they have connection within the government but the import tax is kind of ridiculously high.

That is what my wife said. She wants to export things from the USA to Vietnam and sell them. She has a network of people in Vietnam.

She can make a good profit opening a shop in Vietnam. I just don't know what procedures are in Vietnam. I can handle the USA side.
