Viet Nam named among world’s top 30 exporters in 2025
VGP - Viet Nam ranked 18th place among the world’s 30 largest exporting economies in 2025, with export turnover reaching nearly US$473 billion, according to the latest data from the World Trade Organization (WTO) compiled by Statista.
Viet Nam's export turnover valued US$470 billion for the first time last year, up more than 16 percent year on year, with a trade surplus of over US$20 billion, contributing significantly to maintaining macro-economic stability.
The export growth has been driven by key export products such as electronics, computers, phones and components, machinery and agricultural products including seafood, coffee and wood products.
Viet Nam's trade has expanded rapidly over the past decade, rising from US$100 billion in 2009 to US$930 billion last year and is expected to approach US$1 trillion in the near future.
As of April 15, 2026, total trade value had reached nearly US$300 billion.
Viet Nam set an ambitious export target of some US$546-550 billion for 2026, representing a year-on-year increase of 15-16 percent despite increasingly complex and unpredictable geopolitical tensions, particularly in the Middle East.
The preset goal is widely viewed as challenging and requiring decisive and flexible policy responses, said Bui Huy Son, Director General of the Planning, Finance and Enterprise Management Department./.
