Paper Vietnam 2026 - Market Outlook for Vietnam & Beyond

Several key figures and trends highlight the robust growth of Vietnam's paper industry:

 

Vietnam’s pulp & paper trade:

Vietnam’s paper industry continues to record strong growth, with export turnover surpassing USD 2.7 billion in 2024, maintaining a stable annual growth rate of 10-12%.

On the other hand, according to VNBIS, imports reached approximately USD 2.24 billion, up by around 13.1% compared to the previous year. This indicates that Vietnam remains dependent on imports, although exports are also sustaining steady growth.

In addition, during the first eight months of 2024, Vietnam imported about 1.64 million tons of paper (all types), with a total value of around USD 1.45 billion, an increase of roughly 17% in volume compared to the same period last year.

 

Vietnam’s packaging & paperboard market:

Reports show that the paper packaging segment was valued at around USD 2.6 billion in 2024, and is projected to reach USD 4.5 billion by 2030, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.73%.

Growing demand for eco-friendly solutions, along with stricter environmental regulations in global markets, is creating new opportunities for Vietnamese enterprises to export recycled and sustainable paper packaging, while also meeting increasing domestic consumption.

In short, the parallel development of domestic demand and international trade is solidifying Vietnam’s role in the global paper supply chain while unlocking new opportunities for businesses both locally and abroad.
