During the first eight months of this year, overseas shipments topped 265 billion USD, rising 15.8% year on year. Meanwhile, imports have also been on the rise to serve export manufacturing. The value increased 17.7% from a year earlier to 246 billion USD during the period. As a result, Vietnam gained a trade surplus of 19.07 billion USD, statistics show.
