Vietnam Trucking Policies: Essential Information for Owners

“Driving a truck isn’t all fun and games,” a common saying among truck drivers highlights the inherent hardships of the transportation profession. Besides the demanding physical labor, truck owners and drivers must also be well-versed in national laws and policies to operate legally and safely. So, how do national policies impact trucking operations? Let’s explore this with Hanoi Trucks!

The Impact of National Policies on the Trucking Industry

As Mr. Nam, a 3.5-ton truck owner in Gia Lam, shared, “Policies change suddenly, and we have to adapt quickly or face the consequences.” Indeed, national policies act as the “rules of the game,” directly influencing trucking operations:

• Regulations on Load Capacity: Policies clearly define load limits for each type of truck, from light trucks (1 ton, 2 tons) to 8-ton trucks. Strict adherence protects transportation infrastructure and ensures everyone’s safety.
• Fees and Charges: Bridge tolls, road maintenance fees, vehicle registration fees, etc., are all regulated by policy. Staying updated helps owners avoid penalties and optimize operating costs.
• Support Policies: Numerous policies support the trucking industry, such as loan assistance, tax reductions, and fee waivers, aimed at promoting economic development. Owners should stay informed to maximize these benefits.
