Abstract: This paper examines the export performance of Vietnam based on US imports. The empirical analysis of the paper is based on US imports from Vietnam at the two? and ten?digit levels for the 1994?2011 period. The paper examines the composition of exportsfrom Vietnam, the degree of concentration of exports, and the extent of export similarity with selected comparator countries. Based on the Global Trade Analysis Project (GTAP), the paper also explores the welfare effects of further trade liberalizations on Vietnam and other countries
