As a result, Vietnam ran a trade deficit of 54.22 billion USD with China in the reviewed period, exceeding the figure of 2023 by nearly 5 billion USD.
Imported goods from the Chinese market are mainly products and raw materials for production of exports such as machinery, equipment, chemicals and chemical products, plastics of all kinds and plastic products, textile materials, leather and footwear, iron and steel, and construction materials.
In recent years, despite the sluggish global trade, Vietnam's import-export growth with China has remained one of the standout bright spots.

Currently, China is the first market with two-way trade with Vietnam exceeding 100 billion USD in the January - August period. The import-export turnover between the two countries averagely reaches about 16 billion USD per month.
With the strong improvement in trade during the first half of 2024, the Vietnam-China trade is forecast to approach the 200-billion-USD mark this year.
