《越南与欧盟自由贸易协定》签署及对越南经济发展影响

Opportunities,Challenges and Countermeasures of Vietnam-EU Free Trade Agreement to Vietnam's Economic Development

2020年,越南国会高票通过《越南与欧盟自由贸易协定》(EVFTA)和《越南与欧盟投资保护协定》(EVIPA),成为继新加坡之后第二个与欧盟签署自贸协定的东盟国家。欧盟是越南第4大贸易伙伴,越南是欧盟在东盟的第2大成为贸易伙伴。EVFTA生效必将进一步促进越南进出口贸易、欧盟投资和国内生产总值的增长。但是EVFTA严格的原产地原则、高技术标准和劳工环境标准也给越南带来不小挑战。为此,越南政府需要改革经济体制,完善法律体系,帮助企业化解困难;越南企业应主动了解协定内容,重新定位经营战略,实现数字化转型;产业方面应大力发展配套产业,构建产业链,积极满足原产地要求,以充分享受VEFTA带来的红利。

On June 8,2020,the Vietnamese parliament passed the"Vietnam-EU Free Trade Agreement"(EVFTA)and the"Vietnam-EU Investment Protection Agreement"(EVIPA).The EVFTA is expected to enter into force in July.EVFTA is the first free trade agreement between the EU and the developing country,and Vietnam is the second ASEAN country to sign a free trade agreement with the EU after Singapore.The EU was Vietnam's fourth largest trading partner,and Vietnam was the EU's second largest trading partner in ASEAN.The implementation of EVFTA will further promote the growth of Vietnam's import and export trade,EU investment and GDP.However,EVFTA's strict rules of origin,high technical standards and labor environment standards also pose significant challenges to Vietnam.Therefore,the Vietnamese government needs to reform the economic system,improve the legal environment,and help companies resolve difficulties;Vietnamese companies should actively understand the content of the agreement,reposition their business strategies,and realize digital transformation;The industry should vigorously develop supporting industries,build a complete industrial chain,and actively meet the requirements of origin to fully enjoy the dividends brought by EVFTA.
