Abstract
This study assesses the impact of the EU-Vietnam Free Trade Agreement (EVFTA) on Vietnam’s agricultural exports to the EU market in the period 2018–2022. The estimated results from the gravity model show that the EVFTA has a significant impact on the export of cashew nuts, pepper and rice while having a negligible effect on that of vegetables, fruits, coffee and tea. In addition, the authors also found empirical evidence that the export to the EU market is negatively affected by GDP, tax rates and COVID-19 and positively affected by population, exchange rate and geographical distance. These findings suggest policy implications to exploit the Agreement’s incentives, thereby boosting the export of Vietnamese agricultural products to the EU market.
