As a leading wholesale supplier and exporter of premium exotic fruits, FruitBuys Vietnam understands the importance of navigating the intricate world of customs procedures when it comes to the import and export of dried fruits. Whether you’re an individual customer, a wholesaler, a retailer, or an import company, this comprehensive guide will provide you with a detailed understanding of the customs regulations and processes involved in trading dried fruits from Vietnam.
I. Understanding Vietnam’s Customs Regulations for Dried Fruits
*Customs Classification and Tariffs
The first step in the customs process is to properly classify your dried fruit products. In Vietnam, dried fruits are typically classified under the Harmonized System (HS) code 0813, which covers “Fruit, dried, other than that of headings 0801 to 0806, mixtures of nuts or dried fruits of this Chapter.” Within this broad category, specific dried fruit items may have their own unique HS codes.
It’s important to identify the correct HS code for your dried fruit products to ensure accurate customs declarations and the application of the appropriate tariff rates. The tariff rates for dried fruit imports and exports in Vietnam can vary depending on the specific product, country of origin, and any applicable trade agreements. FruitBuys Vietnam can provide you with up-to-date information on the current tariff rates and assist you in navigating the customs classification process.
*Import and Export Licenses
Importing and exporting dried fruits in Vietnam generally requires specific licenses and permits. The main licenses needed are:
Import/Export License: This license grants the holder the right to engage in the import and/or export of goods, including dried fruits.
Customs Declaration License: This license is required to make customs declarations for imported or exported goods.
Phytosanitary Certificate: This certificate confirms that the dried fruits meet the necessary plant health requirements for import/export.
FruitBuys Vietnam can guide you through the application process for these licenses and certificates, ensuring your dried fruit shipments comply with all necessary regulations.
*Customs Documentation and Procedures
The customs clearance process for importing or exporting dried fruits in Vietnam involves the submission of various documents, including:
Commercial Invoice: Detailing the goods, quantities, prices, and other relevant information.
Packing List: Providing a detailed list of the contents of each package or container.
Bill of Lading or Airway Bill: The transportation document issued by the carrier.

Air Drying (AD): A traditional method that uses warm air to gradually remove moisture from the fruits.
Freeze Drying (FD): A process that freezes the fruit and then removes the ice crystals through a process of sublimation, preserving the fruit’s natural flavor and nutrients.
Spray Drying (SD): A method that converts liquid fruit purees or extracts into a fine powder by atomizing the liquid and drying it with hot air.
Heat Pump Drying (HPD): An energy-efficient drying process that uses a heat pump to provide the heat and dehumidify the drying air.
Vacuum Frying (VF): A technique that fries fruits and vegetables in a vacuum, resulting in a crispier texture and better retention of nutrients and flavor.
These advanced drying technologies allow FruitBuys Vietnam to deliver dried fruits with superior quality, taste, and nutritional value.
