E-commerce and cross-border e-commerce are opening up new opportunities and great potential for businesses. Participating in cross-border e-commerce helps businesses increase export and import opportunities, and approach customers around the world, thereby expanding markets and raising revenue.

Although cross-border e-commerce offers many opportunities but also puts many challenges for Vietnamese businesses, in which Vietnamese businesses have to face issues related to legal aspects, transportation management, customs policy and procedures, taxation, and international trade policy. Accordingly, businesses need to have in-depth knowledge of international trade regulations and processes to ensure law compliance and make the most of business opportunities.
