Can I post Perfume / Fragrance to Vietnam?

Required at the destination customs authority
Full Details
Posting perfume to Vietnam is customs-permitted but carrier-constrained: fragrance alcohol is a Class 3 dangerous-goods limited quantity, so many national posts refuse or cap air-mail perfume, and couriers require limited-quantity packaging. On the customs side General Department of Vietnam Customs (GDVC) treats it as an ordinary parcel: an accurate CN22/CN23 declaration is required, import VAT/GST at 10% applies above the exemption threshold, plus duty on above-threshold consignments. Import goods valued at or below VND 1,000,000 (approx. USD $43) are generally exempt from import duty if they are non-commercial gifts. VAT (10%) may still apply. Vietnam has been working to tighten low-value e-commerce import rules. Verify current rules with GDVC.
Confirm the carrier accepts perfume before shipping to Vietnam — postal refusal is more common than a customs problem. Declare contents accurately on the CN22/CN23; 'gift' mislabelling does not remove import charges and flags the parcel.

Vietnam Post and customs handle international postal imports. Customs duties and VAT apply to goods above the de minimis threshold. Prohibited items cannot be imported by any means including post.
