Demand for Official Import from China

Chinese goods are well-known for their competitive prices, diverse designs, and wide product range — from consumer goods and machinery to fashion. Therefore, more and more Vietnamese businesses and individuals choose official import from China to ensure legal compliance, sell easily on e-commerce platforms, issue invoices, and expand their business.

Benefits of Official Import from China

1. Legal and Transparent

Goods imported officially are cleared through international customs with full documentation (invoices, contracts, C/O, C/Q, packing list, bill of lading, etc.), ensuring peace of mind for circulation and distribution.

2. Long-term Cost Savings

Compared to informal trade, official import reduces legal risks and unexpected expenses due to inspections, confiscation, or fines. It also enables VAT refund if requirements are met.

3. Guaranteed Quality and Traceability

Official imports must comply with quality control, origin, and technical standards, helping businesses build reputation and gain consumer trust.

Having proper invoices and documents makes it easier to enter supermarkets, e-commerce platforms, and modern retail chains. It’s also essential for attracting investors or securing bank loans.
