Current situation of agricultural product exports to China
With a population of more than 1.5 billion people, China is a potential market for Vietnamese agricultural products. The biggest advantage of Vietnamese agricultural products when exported to China is that the taste is similar to that of your country. And based on commitments in the ASEAN-China Free Trade Agreement, to date, China has reduced taxes on more than 8,000 items imported from Vietnam, including agricultural products and fresh fruits, opening up many opportunities. for Vietnamese businesses to access this large market. However, businesses in the industry are required to change production methods towards safety, have specific standards, manage farming processes, and meet traceability requirements to be able to boost exports. export to the Chinese market in the near future.
Currently, the demand and purchasing power of Chinese people for agricultural products and food is increasing. Therefore, China has gradually become our country's largest export market for agricultural products, on average accounting for about 28% of the total world export turnover of this product group, with an export growth rate of about 8. 9%/year (period 2015 - 2020).

The reason why traders need to proactively and quickly shift their export activities to the Chinese market in the form of official channels is because in the most difficult times, official exports still circulate normally, during the most difficult times. When exporting through quota, there are many potential risks. Official exports are more stable and are the driving force to promote the production of quality products and increase product value.
China is tightening regulations on management of agricultural product quality, food safety and hygiene, traceability of origin, quarantine testing, etc. for agricultural products officially exported to this market. This means that this is no longer an easy-going market, so to officially export agricultural products, businesses need to understand the prerequisites that the General Department of Customs of China stipulates for imported agricultural products.

Conditions for officially importing agricultural products into China
The standards that the Chinese market sets for Vietnamese agricultural products are increasingly stricter and stricter. Accordingly, agricultural products imported into China must be on the list that China is PERMITTED to import, or in other words, agree to open the market.

In addition, the Chinese Customs Department also informed the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development that it may apply measures to temporarily suspend imports from that growing area (or enterprise) into the Chinese market. Even temporarily suspending all import activities of that item from Vietnam, depending on the actual situation.
Requirements for packaging, labels and packaging
- Regarding packaging: China's packaging regulations are very diverse, depending on the type of imported goods. The packaging must include information such as product name, quantity, weight, origin, growing area code, packing facility code (for fruit), destination... in Chinese. or in English.

The packaging must have a label to trace the origin. All packaging must be marked “For export to China” in Chinese or English.
Requirements for growing area codes and packaging facilities
The growing area code is a necessary and mandatory condition for agricultural products exported to the Chinese market. According to regulations, fresh fruit exported to China must be purchased from growing areas and packaged at facilities that have been granted codes by the Plant Protection Department (Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development) and must be certified.
