China surpasses U.S. as Vietnam's largest shrimp market

HANOI, Jan. 8 (Xinhua) -- China overtook the United States to become Vietnam's largest shrimp export market in 2025, with shipments exceeding 1 billion U.S. dollars for the first time, local daily VnEconomy reported Thursday.

The Southeast Asian country exported 123,000 tonnes of shrimp to China for 1.24 billion U.S. dollars last year, up 48.4 percent in volume and 63.3 percent in value as compared to 2024. Meanwhile, the United States, Vietnam's largest shrimp market for years, has yet to exceed the 1-billion-dollar mark, according to the report.

Vietnam's total shrimp exports amounted to a record 4.65 billion dollars in 2025, up 19.9 percent year on year.

Regarding Document Language Versions and Our Services

We have intentionally presented these documents in their original format: some crucial policies are available only in Chinese. This reflects a common and critical challenge when entering the Chinese market—the information barrier. Although the Chinese government is continuously enhancing its efforts to publish information in English, a vast volume of legally binding regulations, standards, notices, and real-time updates are still first published through official Chinese channels. This divide of language and access often leaves overseas companies struggling to obtain key information or reliant on outdated and inaccurate translations.

This is precisely where one of the core values of China Entry Hub's "on-the-ground" team lies. As local experts deeply embedded in the Chinese market, we are able to:

Monitor and review the official websites of various central and local government departments in real time.
Accurately interpret and distill the core requirements, deadlines, and changes from Chinese policy documents that are relevant to your specific business operations.
Provide precise business impact analysis, going beyond mere translation, to support your informed decision-making.

If you need to inquire about whether a specific product is subject to special regulations, the specific application requirements for a certain certification, or any policy details only published on Chinese platforms, please feel free to reach out.
