Indications on Vietnam: SummaryIndications on Vietnam: Summary
• Vietnam is deemed rather ”easy” in a Trade Logistics sense
– This applies especially at the most export-orientedindustries such as electronics and textile
– Not necessarily across the country and all industries
• Connectedness very good e.g. by air and container shipping
• ”Red tape” and inofficial payments still an issue
