VOV.VN - The US imported US$22.54 billion worth of computers, electronic products and components from Vietnam during the five-month period of 2026, making it Vietnam’s largest export market for the sector, ahead of China, the European Union and Hong Kong.

According to the Vietnam Customs, Vietnam’s exports of computers, electronic products and components totaled nearly US$56.2 billion in January-May, up 46.2% year-on-year.

The US remained the sector’s main growth driver, with exports to the market rising nearly 55% and accounting for more than 40% of total export value.

China ranked second with imports worth US$8.82 billion. The EU and Hong Kong also ranked among Vietnam’s leading export markets, with Hong Kong serving as a major transshipment hub for Vietnamese electronics.

Exports to the EU posted a strong recovery, while the ASEAN became another fast-growing market, with export value reaching US$3.02 billion, up nearly 77% year-on-year.

Other Asian markets, including the Republic of Korea (RoK), Taiwan (China), Japan and India, also continued to grow, indicating Vietnam’s ongoing efforts to diversify its export markets.

Several non-traditional markets such as Mexico, the United Kingdom, Australia and Canada also recorded strong growth.

In 2025, Vietnam’s exports of computers, electronic products and components surpassed US$100 billion for the first time. With strong momentum in early 2026, export value for the sector is expected to significantly exceed last year’s level.
