Online shopping traffic in Vietnam so far this year rocketed over 150% against a year earlier, with daily visits to e-commerce sites growing to 3.5 million, Nguyen Ngoc Dung, Deputy Chairman of the Vietnam e-Commerce Association (VECOM), told a workshop recently.

Hanoi generated jobs for more than 145,000 people during the January-October period, meeting 93.1% of the yearly target, figures show.

The total value of cashless transactions jumped six times in the first half this year against the same period of 2019.

The Hanoi Department of Taxation has worked with software solution providers to support businesses in introducing e-invoices, towards the target that all local companies will switch to e-invoices from late September.
