CROSS-VIETNAM TRANSPORT SERVICES

Historically, Vietnam and neighboring countries such as Cambodia, Laos, Thailand, and other Southeast Asian nations have maintained close relations and long-standing cooperation across various sectors. In recent years, rapid economic growth has made these markets increasingly promising for Vietnamese enterprises. Consequently, cross-Vietnam transport has become much simpler and more convenient. Let PCL introduce this service in greater detail.

What forms of Cross-Vietnam Transport are available?

There are two primary methods of transportation through Laos: Border Trade and Official Trade.

Border Trade Transport

This method uses border-route pathways without passing through official checkpoints, typically for small-scale shipments. However, goods remain subject to regulatory oversight and inspection, albeit with less complex documentation requirements.

Advantages of Border Trade Transport:

• Simple procedures
  

• Fast processing time
  

• Flexible cargo pick-up locations

Limitations of Border Trade Transport:

• Lack of formal certificates of origin
  

• Smaller shipment volumes
  

• Absence of documents certifying product quality

Official Trade Transport

This form involves cargo transported under formal commercial contracts between the exporting and importing parties. Goods must be accompanied by complete documentation regarding quality and inspection and must pass through official border checkpoints of both countries.

Advantages of Official Trade Transport:

• Clear certification of origin
  

• Capacity for large-volume transport
  

• Full issuance and certification of product standards

Limitations of Official Trade Transport:

• Longer procedures and processing time
  

• Must follow strict, non-flexible protocols
