2025: as reported by partner countries

Vietnam has not filed 2025 yet, so this is rebuilt from what its 16 largest trading partners reported about trade with Vietnam (85% of Vietnam's trade). Not the same measure as the figures above — compare it only with the 2023 row beside it.

Flow20232025Change
Exports30 mn USD40 mn USD+31%
Imports384 mn USD422 mn USD+10%

  • Imports 2023: partners reported 384 mn USD where Vietnam reported 369 mn USD — 1.04× on this measure.

The gap is not a rounding difference: goods re-exported through Hong Kong or Singapore, a different heading chosen by the importing customs, and origin-based versus destination-based attribution all pull the two measures apart. Use the year-on-year change, not the level.

Corresponding US tariff lines

Six digits are identical worldwide under the HS Convention, so 2202.10 is the same subheading in both schedules. What differs is how each country splits it: below are the 5 US lines under 2202.10.

  • 9903.05.84 +12.5%The duty provided in the applicable subheading + 12.5%

These are added to the General duty above, not in place of it. Whether a given article falls inside their scope — and the exclusion lists — is set out in the U.S. notes to Chapter 99, which are prose and not machine-readable, so this site does not assign them per code. Check the official schedule before quoting a landed cost.

Selling to a US buyer? Screen the parties first — buyer, L/C bank and forwarder against the US restricted lists; a listed party can get the shipment held.

The General column is the rate for Vietnam: the Special column lists US preference programmes (GSP, USMCA, KORUS…) and Vietnam is in none of them. Source: USITC Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States — 2026 HTS Revision 18. For reference only — classification on import is decided by US Customs, and anti-dumping, countervailing and Section 232/301 measures are not covered here.

Corresponding Japanese tariff lines

2202.10 is the same subheading in both schedules (six digits are identical worldwide under the HS Convention). Vietnamese goods can enter Japan under four parallel preference routes — the columns below — and the exporter picks whichever C/O gives the better rate.

MFN is the lowest of the schedule's General/Temporary/WTO columns (hover to see all three). The preference columns require the matching certificate of origin; an em dash means that agreement gives no preference for the line.
