Vietnam and Poland set US$6 billion trade goal for 2030
The two governments also agreed to adopt a strategic partnership statement and a 2026-2030 action plan.
Prime Ministers Le Minh Hung of Vietnam and Donald Tusk of Poland set a target of US$6 billion in bilateral trade by 2030 at their October 26 talks in Hanoi, the Vietnam News Agency reported. They also agreed to adopt a statement establishing the Vietnam-Poland Strategic Partnership.
Trade between the countries totalled nearly US$4 billion in 2025, rising 14.8% from 2024, the leaders noted. They considered that level below their economies’ potential and agreed to help companies access each other’s markets. Areas identified included pharmaceuticals, railways, aerospace, cybersecurity, information technology, processing and manufacturing.
Meetings of the Vietnam-Poland Intergovernmental Committee for Economic Cooperation are to resume under the commitments made by both sides. The leaders also welcomed the return of direct services operated by LOT Polish Airlines and highlighted FPT Software’s Polish investment as an example of a flagship project.
Hung acknowledged Poland’s ratification of the EU-Vietnam Investment Protection Agreement and requested Polish advocacy for ratification by the remaining EU members. He also sought Poland’s backing for the removal of the European Commission’s yellow card on Vietnamese seafood exports.
Alongside the partnership statement, the governments agreed to adopt a cooperation action plan for 2026-2030. Their broader commitments covered education, renewable energy, defence, security, tourism and measures to make travel easier for citizens of both countries.
