On April 2, 2025, the U.S. announced countervailing duties of up to 46% on goods imported from Vietnam. This decision heavily impacts Vietnam’s key export sectors such as electronics, textiles, footwear, wood, and components – which together account for more than 70% of exports to the U.S. Both foreign-invested and domestic enterprises are now facing declining orders, rising costs, and reduced competitiveness.
Experts believe this tariff move not only affects exports but also influences exchange rates, FDI inflows, and the global supply chain. This is a crucial moment for Vietnamese businesses to reassess their strategies and identify effective response solutions.
