What you need for Vietnam
Phytosanitary & Quality
Vietnam (MARD Plant Protection Department) requires a phytosanitary certificate from the exporting NPPO for imported RCN, attesting freedom from regulated pests.
As with India, RCN into Vietnam is fumigated against live infestation; provide the treatment certificate to avoid on-arrival re-fumigation and demurrage.
Destination Market Access
Certificate of origin for Vietnamese customs, plus a per-lot outturn (KOR)/moisture CoA — Vietnamese processors contract on outturn with reweighing, the same as India.
