Strengthening policies and legislation on forestry is an urgent requirement to ensure the effective implementation of the National Target Programme on Sustainable Forestry Development for the 2021–2025 period. This forms a crucial foundation for building a modern and internationally integrated forestry sector that makes a substantive contribution to Viet Nam’s green growth objectives and its commitment to achieving net-zero emissions.

The export of timber and wood products plays a key role in Viet Nam’s economy, with high export turnover, but faces a series of challenges from market fluctuations and tariffs to raw material supply and environmental regulations. As such, enterprises working in this sector are compelled to restructure to improve competitiveness and achieve sustainable development.
