Seafood Export of Vietnam: A Strategic Insight Into the Regulatory Shipments of 2024

The seafood export of Vietnam has seen a tremendous hike in its industrial expansion, as the coastline of over 3,200 km and the abundance of natural resources have enabled the country to become one of the top seafood exporters in the world. Vietnam Import Data says, the General Statistics Office of Vietnam has depicted that the country has exported over 8 billion US dollars of seafood products to various countries around the globe, which has accounted for nearly 7% of the country’s total export revenue and has contributed substantially to the annual GDP valuation. China, Japan, South Korea, and the United States have been dominating the top export partners of the Vietnamese seafood industry.

The growing global demand for seafood from the trade management authorities of Vietnam due to the high quality production and longer shelf life has recorded an export trade value of 12 billion US dollars of seafood from the nation in 2024. Import Globals with this Vietnam trade data highlight traditional shipments of seafood from the trade firms to other importing destinations worldwide. The valuable trade asset helps the business owners to actively monitor the competitors, enhancing engagement in specific categories to empower them while making decisions based on future positive trade trends.

GOVERNMENT INITIATIVES SUPPORTING THE EXPORT OF SEAFOOD FROM VIETNAM IN 2024

The Vietnamese government authorities have been implementing several initiatives over the past few years to counter the export of seafood by promoting a positive trade rate. The provincial credit packages with low-interest loan programs for the seafood and forestry sectors, scaling up funding to approximately VN$60 trillion, have offered interest rates 1 to 1.5% below market levels, fostering the sectors to maintain operations and invest in production.

The National Programme for Aquatic Resource Protection is also a crucial one, maintaining sustainable development of the seafood industry. It includes measures to combat illegal, unreported, and unregulated fishing, addressing the Commission’s warning, and aims to improve compliance with the international standards. The utilization of the Free Trade Agreements of Vietnam, like the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership accompanied by the new Vietnam Free Trade Partnership Agreement, has been working in a continuous manner to facilitate the market expansion contributing to the growth of seafood exports.
