## Market Overview

# CHAPTER 1 - Market Overview

The Vietnam Express and E-Commerce Logistics Market connects online marketplaces, direct-to-consumer brands, social sellers and enterprise shippers with national parcel, fulfillment and returns networks. Vietnam's e-commerce economy reached approximately USD 31 billion in 2025, equivalent to about 10% of retail and consumer-service turnover. This transaction base creates recurring demand for pickup, sorting, middle-mile transfer, last-mile delivery and cash-on-delivery reconciliation.

Market activity is concentrated around Ho Chi Minh City, Hanoi and their surrounding industrial corridors because these locations combine dense consumer demand, marketplace warehouses, airports, ports and high-capacity sorting infrastructure. Vietnam recorded 4.20 billion postal items in 2025, while major operators continued adding automated hubs capable of processing tens of thousands of parcels per hour. Density lowers cost per stop and strengthens next-day service economics.

Regulatory requirements increasingly influence market access, cross-border clearance and platform accountability. Vietnam's dedicated E-Commerce Law was approved in December 2025 and became effective from July 2026, expanding obligations for platforms, sellers and foreign service providers. The removal of the low-value import VAT exemption also placed previously exempt parcels under tax collection, increasing customs-data, declaration and landed-cost management requirements for logistics operators.

Strategically, the market is shifting from stand-alone delivery toward integrated logistics infrastructure covering fulfillment, inventory visibility, returns, customs coordination and merchant technology. Postal-sector revenue reached VND 87 trillion in 2025, compared with VND 28.3 trillion in 2019, while parcel services represented most sector revenue. Operators that combine nationwide reach with automation, data integration and cross-border capabilities are positioned to capture higher-value profit pools.

## KPIs at a Glance

* Market Value: USD 3.18 billion (2025)
* Dominant Region: Ho Chi Minh City and Southeast Vietnam (2025)
* Dominant Segment: Parcel and Express Delivery (fastest growing at scale, 2025)
* Total Number of Players: 760

## Future Outlook

The Vietnam Express and E-Commerce Logistics Market is projected to expand from USD 3.18 billion in 2025 to USD 6.52 billion by 2031. The forecast represents a moderation from the 20.53% historical CAGR recorded during 2020-2025 to a more normalized 12.71% CAGR during 2026-2031. Growth will remain supported by higher online purchasing frequency, video-commerce adoption, marketplace fulfillment investment, cross-border trade and penetration beyond Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City. Parcel volume is expected to increase from 4.20 billion items in 2025 to 8.58 billion items by 2031, while pricing remains competitive.

Profit-pool expansion is expected to exceed basic delivery growth as operators increase exposure to fulfillment, returns, customs processing, inventory management and merchant software. Domestic business-to-consumer shipments will remain the largest flow, while cross-border inbound and outbound services record faster percentage growth. Automated sorting, route optimization, digital addressing and integrated payment reconciliation should improve network utilization, although intense price competition and failed-delivery costs will constrain margins. The base forecast assumes no material regulatory disruption, continued double-digit e-commerce growth and gradual improvement in road, airport and border-gate infrastructure through 2031.

### Historical Market Performance (2020-2025)

Market value increased by USD 1.93 billion between 2020 and 2025, with the strongest annual expansion recorded in 2021 at 25.6%. Growth moderated to 14.4% in 2023 as parcel pricing compressed and operators absorbed network expansion costs, before accelerating to 21.6% in 2024. Parcel volume expanded faster than value throughout the period, rising from 1.05 billion to 4.20 billion items. The divergence reflects a higher share of lightweight marketplace parcels, promotional shipping subsidies and competitive pressure on domestic delivery tariffs.

### Forecast Market Outlook (2026-2031)

Market value is forecast to increase by USD 3.34 billion from 2025 to 2031, reaching USD 6.52 billion. Growth should remain within a 12.5%-12.9% annual range as the industry transitions from exceptional parcel-volume expansion toward monetization of fulfillment, returns and cross-border services. Parcel volume is projected to reach 8.58 billion items by 2031, representing a 12.63% volume CAGR. Average revenue per item should stabilize near USD 0.76 as price competition in basic delivery is offset by higher service intensity and improved value-added logistics penetration.

### Key Segmentation Takeaways

Comprehensive analysis across all extracted segmentation dimensions providing insights into market structure, customer requirements and distribution patterns.

**Service Type** - Parcel and Express Delivery remains the dominant revenue dimension because every online order requires physical movement, sorting and final-mile execution. Domestic standard delivery generates the largest volume pool, while same-day and next-day services command higher revenue per shipment in dense cities. Fulfillment and returns services are increasing their contribution as merchants outsource inventory and customer-experience processes.

**Shipment Flow** - Cross-Border Inbound and Cross-Border Outbound are the fastest-expanding shipment flows as Vietnamese consumers access regional platforms and domestic sellers pursue international demand. The removal of low-value tax exemptions increases compliance complexity but also creates monetizable customs, documentation and duty-management services. Domestic B2C remains largest, while social-commerce and livestream transactions add high-frequency parcel demand.

## Market Challenges

### Price Competition and Thin Profitability

Sector profit was approximately **VND 950 billion in H1 2025 (Vietnam)**, indicating narrow margins relative to rapidly expanding shipment revenue. 

* H1 postal revenue reached **VND 38.3 trillion (2025, Vietnam)**, while profit remained below VND 1 trillion, limiting returns on fleet and hub investment. 
* The market included approximately **760 operators (2025, Vietnam)**, increasing merchant bargaining power and intensifying competition for high-volume marketplace contracts. 
* Average modeled revenue declined to **USD 0.76 per item (2025, Vietnam)**, making route density, automation and failed-delivery reduction essential to defend contribution margins. 

### High National Logistics Costs

Vietnam targeted reducing logistics costs from **18% to 15% of GDP (2025 target, Vietnam)**, highlighting persistent structural inefficiency. 

* Road transport remains dominant for parcels, exposing operators to urban congestion, fuel expenditure and fragmented interprovincial routing across a **1,600-kilometer coastline (Vietnam)**. ([vietnam.travel])
* Vietnam ranked **43rd in the Logistics Performance Index (2023, World Bank)**, indicating that infrastructure and service quality remain below leading regional benchmarks. 
* The government's target to lift logistics-sector growth toward **20% annually (2024 policy, Vietnam)** requires faster infrastructure delivery and interoperable data standards. 

### Regulatory and Cross-Border Compliance Complexity

A **10% VAT requirement from February 2025 (Vietnam)** ended the exemption previously available to low-value imported e-commerce parcels. 

* The former threshold covered shipments below approximately **VND 1 million (2024 rule, Vietnam)**, so removal increased declaration and tax-processing requirements for high-volume imports. 
* The E-Commerce Law received **444 of 446 approving votes (2025, Vietnam)**, signaling stronger platform, seller and foreign-provider accountability from July 2026. 
* More than **6,000 e-commerce registration and notification files (2025, Vietnam)** were processed, illustrating the administrative scale operators must integrate into merchant onboarding. 

---

## Market Opportunities

### Integrated Fulfillment and Inventory Services

Fulfillment can capture a larger profit pool as online commerce exceeds **USD 31 billion (2025, Vietnam)** and merchants outsource operational complexity. 

* Monetizable services include storage, pick-pack, inventory visibility and returns, raising revenue per order above the modeled **USD 0.76 delivery average (2025, Vietnam)**. 
* Digital-native brands and SMEs benefit from shared infrastructure, while logistics investors gain exposure to recurring warehouse and service-fee revenue linked to **25.5% e-commerce growth (2025, Vietnam)**. 
* Opportunity realization requires interoperable order-management systems and warehouse automation capable of supporting the forecast **8.58 billion items by 2031 (Vietnam)**. 

### Cross-Border Logistics and Customs Enablement

Cross-border services provide differentiated revenue as low-value imports now face **10% VAT collection (2025, Vietnam)** and greater documentation requirements. 

* Customs brokerage, duty calculation and consolidated clearance create fee-based revenue beyond transport, particularly for the **USD 31 billion e-commerce market (2025, Vietnam)**. 
* Marketplaces, exporters and international carriers benefit from domestic partners with national pickup and clearance capabilities across **more than 4.1 billion postal items (2025, Vietnam)**. 
* Success requires integrated customs data, harmonized product classification and border-gate capacity as Vietnam's total exports reached approximately **USD 475 billion (2025, Vietnam)**. 

### Automation, Data and Out-of-Home Delivery

Automation can improve unit economics across a market processing **4.20 billion items (2025, Vietnam)** while basic parcel tariffs remain compressed. 

* Automated sorting, route optimization and predictive staffing can raise throughput beyond current benchmarks of **42,000 items per hour (2024, major operator)**. 
* Operators, property owners and retailers can monetize parcel lockers and collection points, reducing failed delivery across a network historically exceeding **21,600 service points (2022, Vietnam)**. 
* Deployment requires open application interfaces, standardized digital addresses and customer adoption supported by **91.2% 5G population coverage (2025, Vietnam)**.

## Frequently Asked Questions

# CHAPTER 12 - FAQs

#### Q: How large is the Vietnam Express and E-Commerce Logistics Market?

**A:** The Vietnam Express and E-Commerce Logistics Market was worth USD 3.18 billion in 2025. The estimate covers monetized express delivery, domestic and cross-border parcels, e-commerce fulfillment, warehousing, returns and related value-added services. It excludes general bulk freight and internal logistics movements without separately priced revenue. The result was triangulated against official postal revenue of VND 87 trillion, 4.20 billion postal items, company-level operator estimates and demand derived from Vietnam's USD 31 billion e-commerce economy.

**Data used:** USD 3.18 billion market value in 2025; 4.20 billion postal items in 2025.

**So what:** Investment decisions should distinguish the addressable outsourced logistics pool from broader postal and freight-sector headline values.

#### Q: What is the market forecast and expected CAGR through 2031?

**A:** The market is forecast to reach USD 6.52 billion by 2031, representing a 12.71% CAGR during 2026-2031. Parcel volume is projected to increase from 4.20 billion items in 2025 to 8.58 billion items by 2031. Value growth should increasingly come from fulfillment, returns, cross-border clearance and merchant technology rather than basic tariff expansion. The forecast assumes continued double-digit online-commerce growth, improving network utilization and no material regulatory restriction on marketplace or social-commerce activity.

**Data used:** USD 6.52 billion market value in 2031; 12.71% forecast CAGR during 2026-2031.

**So what:** Capacity plans should prioritize scalable hubs and value-added services instead of relying solely on last-mile price increases.

#### Q: Where will the market's profit pool shift during the forecast period?

**A:** Profit pools will shift from stand-alone parcel delivery toward fulfillment, inventory management, returns processing, customs coordination and integrated merchant solutions. Basic domestic B2C delivery remains the largest revenue stream, but intense marketplace bargaining and 760 licensed operators constrain margins. Services that increase revenue per order, reduce failed deliveries or embed operators into merchant workflows should command stronger economics. Platform-linked fulfillment and cross-border compliance will be especially relevant as online transaction value and direct-to-consumer trade expand.

**Data used:** 760 operators in 2025; approximately 79% e-commerce parcel share in 2025.

**So what:** Operators should allocate capital toward fulfillment depth, data integration and cross-border capabilities rather than undifferentiated fleet expansion.

#### Q: What is the most significant constraint on market profitability?

**A:** The primary constraint is the combination of low parcel pricing, high national logistics costs and service-level expenditure. Industry profit in the first half of 2025 was approximately VND 950 billion despite postal revenue of VND 38.3 trillion, illustrating a narrow margin structure. Failed deliveries, cash-on-delivery handling, rural route economics and peak-period capacity add further cost. Marketplaces also concentrate shipment demand and can negotiate volume discounts that shift operational risk toward carriers.

**Data used:** VND 950 billion sector profit in H1 2025; VND 38.3 trillion sector revenue in H1 2025.

**So what:** Sustainable returns require route-density optimization, automated handling and disciplined customer-level profitability management.

#### Q: How does Vietnam compare with relevant Southeast Asian markets?

**A:** Vietnam ranks third in the selected peer group, behind Indonesia and Thailand but ahead of Malaysia and the Philippines by modeled 2025 express and e-commerce logistics revenue. Vietnam's 12.71% forecast CAGR exceeds the modeled rates for Thailand and Malaysia, while remaining slightly below the Philippines. Its position is supported by USD 31 billion in e-commerce activity, 4.20 billion postal items and comparatively high parcel frequency per capita.

**Data used:** USD 3.18 billion Vietnam market value in 2025; 12.71% CAGR during 2026-2031.

**So what:** Regional strategies should treat Vietnam as a scaled growth market rather than an early-stage logistics opportunity.

#### Q: Which demand driver has the greatest impact on market growth?

**A:** Expansion in online transaction value and purchasing frequency is the strongest demand driver. Vietnam's e-commerce economy reached approximately USD 31 billion in 2025, increasing by 25.5%, while more than 55% of the population participated in online shopping. Video commerce, social selling and mobile purchasing generate smaller, more frequent orders that require parcel-intensive logistics. Growth beyond Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City also increases the need for regional hubs and structured interprovincial line-haul.

**Data used:** USD 31 billion e-commerce value in 2025; 25.5% annual growth in 2025.

**So what:** Operators should align hub placement and merchant acquisition with order-density expansion in secondary cities and emerging digital categories.

#### Q: Which segments should investors and operators prioritize?

**A:** Priority segments are integrated fulfillment, cross-border e-commerce logistics, domestic B2C parcel delivery and returns management. Basic delivery provides scale, but fulfillment and cross-border services create stronger customer retention and higher revenue per order. Ho Chi Minh City and the Southeast remain the largest operating cluster, followed by Hanoi and the Red River Delta. Northern border provinces offer strategic relevance for China-linked parcel flows, while the Mekong Delta and central cities provide longer-term network-density opportunities.

**Data used:** USD 3.18 billion market value in 2025; USD 6.52 billion projected value in 2031.

**So what:** The preferred portfolio combines national parcel scale with selective investment in high-margin fulfillment and cross-border nodes.
