On other hand, China is the largest market supplying goods to Vietnam with import turnover from this market estimated at 11.6 billion USD, down 2.2% compared to the same period in 2024 and accounting for 38.6% of total import turnover of goods of the whole country.
Vietnam - China trade reached a new record of 205 billion USD in 2024, of which Vietnam imported about 144 billion USD from this market. With this result, China has become the first trade partner that our country has established a scale of over 200 billion USD.
Import and export goods between the two countries are diverse and rich, from agricultural products to raw materials, electronics, consumer goods, etc.

In recent years, despite the gloomy global trade context, Vietnam's import and export growth with China has still increased strongly. Strong recovery in trade in goods since the beginning of 2024 has brought import and export activities to a continuous boom, especially strong increase in imports of input materials and machinery and equipment from China.
