Choose gifts according to their intended use

The intended use is a crucial factor determining the value of the gift you choose. If you want the recipient to use it daily, opt for compact-sized items. Conversely, if it's for decoration, aesthetic value should be prioritized.

Select gifts of good quality

A high-quality gift reflects the giver's respect. Choose gifts made from durable materials, meticulously crafted, with clear origins and brands.

Consider luggage and customs regulations

Before choosing Vietnamese gifts for international travel, carefully research customs regulations. Some countries may restrict or prohibit the import of certain goods, such as uninspected food items or products containing prohibited chemicals. Thoroughly review the regulations regarding prohibited or restricted imports of the recipient's country to avoid your gift being detained or destroyed.
