Invitation to attend the “Vietnam-US Trade Forum 2025”

Thirty years after the normalization of relations (1995–2025), Vietnam-US economic and trade cooperation has developed strongly based on important milestones: the Bilateral Trade Agreement (BTA) in 2000, Vietnam's accession to the WTO in 2007, the establishment of a Comprehensive Strategic Partnership in 2023, and efforts towards a Fair and Balanced Reciprocal Trade Agreement in 2025. As a result, bilateral trade has increased more than 330 times, reaching US$149.5 billion in 2024, demonstrating the deep integration of supply chains and the crucial role of the US market for Vietnamese exports.

Amidst significant adjustments to the trade policies of the Donald Trump administration's second term, Vietnamese businesses need to stay updated to proactively respond, protect their supply chains, and maintain growth. 2026 is projected to be a pivotal year in reshaping bilateral trade relations, ushering in a new era of cooperation.

The Ministry of Industry and Trade is organizing and cordially invites businesses and organizations to participate in the Vietnam-US Trade Forum 2025: “30 Years of Economic and Trade Cooperation – Overcoming Challenges, Entering a New Era,” scheduled for December 10, 2025, in Ho Chi Minh City.

The event is expected to attract 300 guests, including leaders from ministries and provincial/city governments; the Vietnamese and US business communities and associations; retail corporations, importers, and logistics companies; the US Embassy and Chamber of Commerce; as well as experts, academics, and media representatives.

For further information, please contact Mr. Tran Minh Toan, Department of Foreign Market Development, Ministry of Industry and Trade. Phone: 086.909.6688, email: toantm@moit.gov.vn .
