After the seafood is prepared, carefully packed, the company's professional staff will have to complete the work: receive empty containers from transport units and open customs declarations Before loading and unloading goods into containers, the company must declare to customs procedures
• Delivery
Most of the contracts are done under the terms of FOB Saigon port, a few are signed under the terms FOB Hai Phong Therefore, at least 3 days before the delivery time, the foreign party will transfer to the delivery instruction and from there the company will contact the port dispatching agency to master the delivery schedule to have a plan to transport goods into the port

Customs, seafood export turnover in 2019 reached over 8.54 billion USD
• Internal factor:
- Geographical and climate factors:
Trang 9Due to the influence of climatic conditions such as wind, temperature, air, water
environment, rainfall regime, salinity impact on the growth and development of organisms leading to the catch fish will be changed In addition, floods and storms have a great impact
on the aquaculture system and create many disadvantages for this industry
In addition, seafood is a product characterized by difficulty in preserving As a result, the bad weather leads to a rapid decrease in the life of commodities, which makes it difficult to export

The European Union (EU) currently has 28 member countries, with a population of over 376 million people, is a major economic center of the world with highly developed economies such
as France, Germany with revenues Enter a high per capita and high purchasing power
Due to the harsh geography and climate, plus EU seafood sources are at an alarming rate, the
EU is forced to take measures to limit fishing and fishing while EU demand is increasing
EU is really a fastidious market, with very strict and stringent requirements for quality and food safety To protect consumers, the EU inspects products from the place of production and has alarms between member countries The EU has issued a number of legal documents regulating food quality and safety, including fisheries Aquatic products exported to the EU must go through many stages: parasites, chemistry, microbiological
In terms of packaging, the packaging used for packaging should be materials that meet the requirements of storage and transportation and should pay attention to environmental protection factors, preferably using materials that have be reborn Packaged products must specify the product name, ingredients, weight, duration and usage, place of manufacture, conditions for storage and use, bar code and bar code to identify the shipment

However, Vietnam's seafood industry still faces many difficulties That is, businesses still have difficulty in accessing capital, and especially lack of raw materials and labor Therefore, Vietnam needs to have an appropriate development policy to cope with the market, focusing on food safety and hygiene issues for the product in order to achieve the long-term development goals for the whole industry and the orientation branding for Vietnamese seafood products
