Rationale The importance of focus on trading across borders environment: • First, nowadays trade barriers such as tariffs and quotas have been considerably reduced in many countries through WTO negotiations and a wide range of Bilateral FTA and Regional. Hence, the cost of non-tariff barriers has become more significant. • Second, companies today often produce components in different countries. This has put more pressure on countries to reduce non-tariff barriers to stay competitive and to integrate in international supply chains. • Third, the technological development enables new and more efficient ways to exchange information and to lower trade costs. • In Vietnam, trade facilitation is focus mainly on procedures, therefore it is very important to evaluate the impact of trading across borders environment on trade development. In this case, I want to concentrate on its impact to export volumes. Pham Thi Huyen Trang - Vietnam
