“…Therefore, theoretically, the population of the exporting country and its trading partners may have a favorable impact on the number of exports from that country to its trading partners. Mai and Huynh (2018), when conducting a case study in Vietnam, also found that the population of importing countries and Vietnam's bilateral export value correlated positively. However, according to Allayarov, Mehmed, Arefin, and Nurmatov (2018), the partners' population proved to have a negative effect on the bilateral trade of Kyrgyzstan.…”

Mach and Elec is a vital sector greatly contributing to Vietnam’s economic growth and the trade liberalization mechanism in the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP) has further enhanced our opportunities to boost exporting these products. Hence, in this paper, we made the first attempt to analyze the impact of tariffs on Vietnam’s export of Mach and Elec products to partners within CPTPP. This study utilized a modified gravity model and simultaneous quantile regression to analyze Vietnam’s export turnover of machinery and electronic products to 10 CPTPP member countries from 2005 to 2020 on different quantiles of the export distribution. The primary variable of interest was the applied tariffs (AHS). The results indicate that the most preferential tariff available still has a significantly detrimental impact on Vietnam’s export turnover. Also, exports of Mach and Elec products to larger markets in CPTPP tend to be more affected by tariffs than smaller ones. Our research findings have important implications for Vietnam enterprises and the government exporting machinery and electronic products to make the most of the preferential tariff under the CPTPP agreement.

“…Nguyen (2014) suggests that the exchange rate and FTAs have a positive eect on the export volume. Tu and Giang (2018) demonstrate that the trade cost, which includes costs incurred in both the exporting and importing country, such astransportation cost and transportation insurance premium, has a negative impact on the export value. Nguyen (2010) applies the static and dynamic gravity model to investigate the determinants of Vietnamese export ows and his study shows strong evidence that adding the lagged endogenous variable as a regressor will improve the estimated results.…”

This study aims to investigate the determinants of bilateral trade flows of Vietnam. The panel fixed effects estimation using Driscoll and Kraay standard errors and panel fixed effects two-stage least squares approach are employed to analyze a balanced panel data, which includes fifty-three countries that have been continuously trading with Vietnam from 1997 to 2019. The estimated results reveal that free trade agreements have a positive effect on the bilateral trade flows whether in case of trading with the developed or developing countries. Additionally, the bilateral trade flows between Vietnam and the developed countries are enhanced by the difference in income level. They are, however, impeded by the institutional distance and transportation cost. In case of trading with the developing countries, transportation cost and exchange rate have a positive impact on the bilateral trade flows. Our study provides some crucial policy implications for policymakers involving international trading activities in the developing countries such as Vietnam.

“…Similarly, Hye, Wizarat and Lau (2016) said that trade openness are positively related to economic growth in the long run and short run. Tu and Giang (2018) also showed that trade openness is a significant determinant of Vietnamese bilateral export value. Nguyen (2020) has proven that FDI and international trade are related to Vietnam's economic growth.…”

The study assesses the impact of trade liberalization factors on changes in customs revenues in Vietnam. Research data was conducted between 2002 and 2017 on the official website of the Government's Web Portal and The World Bank. This paper uses the vector error correction model to estimate the short-term and long term relationship between data series. The results have proven that tariff reductions have a positive effect on short-term and long-term customs revenues in Vietnam. However, the implementation of other international commitments on trade liberalization has positive short-term and long-term negative impacts on customs revenues in Vietnam. The study's results also show that exchange rate has no effect on changes in customs revenues in the short term but it has a strong impact on increasing customs revenues in the long run. Based on these findings, the article also suggests a number of policies to ensure customs revenues in Vietnam in future. In order to ensure customs revenues, the government of Vietnam should: (1) having some policy to improve the efficiency of customs management in Vietnam; (2) Building appropriate VND exchange rate policy; (3) Establishing reasonable non-tariff barriers to prevent fraud and ovations cause losses in customs revenues.
