If you send your laptop to Vietnam, make sure to find a reliable shipping company.
Laptops are widely available in Vietnam, but to obtain a newer model or a better price people in Vietnam sometimes must have a machine shipped in from the United States or other country. Travelers to Vietnam also sometimes ship their laptops to avoid the inconvenience of carrying the machine on a plane. Shipping a laptop to Vietnam is easy and safe as long as you find a reliable, well-known shipping company and wrap up the laptop well.
Instructions
1. Keep the laptop wrapped in its original packaging because this packaging will protect it best. If feasible, wrap the machine in additional bubble wrap to protect it.
2. Find a cardboard box big enough to hold the laptop and its original packaging. Stuff any empty space with rags or bubble wrap. Use packing tape to seal the box and write your address and the recipient's address legibly on the front. Write "FRAGILE" on the box in big letters.
3. Choose your shipping service from among reputable companies. Large reliable shippers include DHL, UPS and FedEx. Make sure your machine has insurance and a warranty in case it arrives damaged. Ask your shipper how much the duties will be in Vietnam when the recipient comes to pick up the machine, as rates vary. Hand over your package to the shipper and notify the recipient in Vietnam that the laptop has been sent.
