Why Do You Need Our Merchant of Record Servics?

Importer of Record (IOR)

No Local Entity

You don’t have a registered legal entity in-country to act as the consignee.

Missing Licenses

You do not possess the mandatory import permits for specialized or restricted goods.

Customs Complexity

You don’t want to deal with import processes, HS classifications, or local compliance requirements.

Distributor of Record (DOR)

No Local Entity

You want to sell in Vietnam but do not have—or prefer not to establish—a registered legal entity to act as the importer.

Missing Local Distributors

You lack a domestic distribution network and want to fully outsource the import, warehousing, and order fulfillment processes.

Domestic VAT Invoicing

Your local B2B end-buyers require compliant VAT invoices to close deals, necessitating a Vietnamese entity to process the sales.

Exporter of Record (EOR)

Unregistered Vendors

You are sourcing from local manufacturers who are not legally registered to export goods.

Consolidation Needs

You need a single legal entity to consolidate and export shipments from multiple local suppliers.

Complex RMA

You need a seamless, compliant solution for complex Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) processes.

Specialized IOR Solutions in Vietnam

An Importer of Record (IOR) is the legal entity responsible for ensuring your shipments comply with all local customs and tax regulations. We act as your importer—managing clearance, duties, and import licenses—so you can ship goods into Vietnam without the burden of establishing a local company.

IOR in Action: Deploy Critical Assets Risk-Free

Seamlessly import products into Vietnam without a local entity. We act as your legal consignee, assuming 100% of the customs, tax, and licensing liabilities on your behalf.

With DOR, VNBG holds local inventory and issues valid VAT invoices directly to your domestic B2B buyers on your behalf.

By leveraging VNBG’s established corporate entities and import/export licenses, you can bypass the costly, months-long process of setting up a Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) company. You can begin trading immediately with zero sunk costs.
We eliminate delays through rigorous pre-shipment compliance. Before your cargo ever leaves the origin port, our experts verify the exact HS codes and identify all mandatory specialized licenses (such as telecom, medical, or cryptography permits).
