How we cover it
One method, whatever the country.
Most projects are run remotely, with an independent inspector at the factory before shipment. When a project needs it, EcomLaunch Solutions visits the factory in person.
Inspection
An independent freelance inspector engaged by EcomLaunch Solutions checks the goods at the factory before shipment, billed at cost. The report is handed over as the inspector wrote it.
When a project needs a visit
Travel is agreed with you in writing before the trip and billed at cost with receipts.
Every quote, every payment
EcomLaunch Solutions takes no commission, no rebate and no payment of any kind from any factory, and shows you every quote as the factory sent it.
What to know in 2026
Dated, with the source beside each one.
Third-party facts, read on 2026-09-24. Rates and rules move; the figure that counts is your broker’s on the day of entry.
North, South, Central
An industrial north, flexible consumer goods in the south, resource processing in the centre; where a factory sits says a lot about what it makes.
No China 301 duties
Vietnam does not carry the China-specific Section 301 duties; a separate Section 301 baseline for other countries applies from 24 July 2026. Your broker’s figure on the day of entry counts.
Electronics first
Electronics is Vietnam’s largest export category, with apparel, footwear and furniture behind it.
Furniture
Wooden, flat-pack, rattan and bamboo furniture, much of it from Binh Duong; Vietnam is the second-largest furniture supplier to the United States.
