When shipping from Ho Chi Minh City to Newark, anticipate significant disruptions during the monsoon season (May-September) and typhoon season (June-November), including heavy rainfall and port congestion. Build in buffer days to schedules and communicate regularly with carriers for real-time updates.

Shipping moisture-sensitive Stationery Requires moisture barriers. We recommend bundling paper and notebooks in Poly bags, using double-walled boxes, and Adding desiccant packs for longer or ocean shipments. Always select enclosed transport and avoid exposure to rain or damp storage areas.
Small Office equipment should ideally be shipped in the Original manufacturer box with molded inserts. If that is not available, Use a heavy-duty box, wrap the unit in Bubble wrap, and Fill all voids with cushioning so the item cannot shift. Clearly label the box as “Fragile” and do not allow stacking heavy cartons on top.
You can palletize mixed loads of Office products and light office equipment, but You should Build the pallet carefully. Position heavier cartons (e.g., copy paper, office equipment) at the bottom, lighter stationery on top, and Stabilize the load with Corner boards and stretch wrap. Keep moisture-sensitive paper away from pallet edges and add a top sheet or pallet cover if there is any risk of humidity or light rain during handling.
For small parcel shipments of low-value Stationery, carrier default liability may be sufficient, but for bulk pallets or office equipment, We recommend Purchasing cargo insurance. It can cover handling damage that standard carrier liability may not fully reimburse, especially for higher-value office equipment or large volumes of paper products.
Office products should be stored in Dry, temperature-stable areas away from direct sunlight and sources of moisture. Keep pallets off the floor on racking or pallets, avoid stacking beyond recommended heights to prevent crushing, and verify that cartons of moisture-sensitive stationery are not placed near dock doors or damp walls. For office equipment, Avoid storage in areas with extreme temperature swings that could affect electronics or lubricants.
Required documentation includes a commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading, and any necessary export permits from Vietnam. Additionally, customs documentation for the United States must be prepared, including an Importer Security Filing (ISF) and a Customs declaration form.
