AsemconnectVietnam - After only 11 months of 2024, Vietnam's import turnover of goods from China has reached a record high of 130.51 billion USD.

According to preliminary statistics just released by the General Department of Customs, by the end of November, the total import turnover of goods nationwide reached 345.62 billion USD, an increase of 16.3% (equivalent to an increase of 48.62 billion USD) compared to the same period last year.
In terms of markets, Vietnam still imports the most goods from China. By the end of November, import turnover from this neighboring market reached 130.51 billion USD, a sharp increase of 30.1% (equivalent to an increase of 30.2 billion USD) compared to the same period last year, accounting for 38% of the total import turnover of the whole country.
