How to Verify a Vietnamese Supplier Before You Order

Supplier verification is the highest-leverage step in cross-border sourcing. Here is the framework our team uses.

Company & capability

Verify legal registration, years in business, ownership, and that production capacity matches your volume and lead time.

Quality & certification

Request specs, samples, and recent test reports. Confirm certifications are valid and current.

Track record

Ask for references from buyers in your market and contact them. Search for complaints or disputes.

Payment protection

Use staged payments, written contracts, and pre-shipment inspection.
