Vietnam eCommerce Market Localization Guide

• Data section: The basic data of the country and eCommerce data in the guide have been comprehensively updated.
• Post-pandemic economic recovery: In this revision of the guide, we have added a section on “Covid Update – Country Initiatives and Economic Recovery”, which provides insights into Vietnam’s post-pandemic economic recovery and the government updated policies.
