Pasabuy from Vietnam: How to Buy Online and Ship to the Philippines Easily

Pasabuy from Vietnam: How to Buy Online and Ship to the Philippines Easily

As e-commerce grows across Southeast Asia, Filipino buyers are increasingly looking toward Vietnam for unique and high-quality products. From fashion and lifestyle items to locally made crafts and specialty goods, Vietnam’s domestic market offers a variety that’s often unavailable through global platforms.

Yet for many individual buyers and small businesses in the Philippines, purchasing directly from Vietnamese sellers can be difficult. Payments across currencies, language barriers, and complex international logistics can easily discourage potential shoppers.

To address this, ZendEase by 1Export offers Pasabuy from Vietnam, a managed shopping and forwarding service that allows anyone in the Philippines to purchase directly from Vietnam, with ZendEase handling every step from buying to delivery.

A Managed, End-to-End Service

The Pasabuy service is designed to simplify international buying. Customers simply share what they want to purchase—and ZendEase manages the process locally in Vietnam, ensuring smooth coordination with sellers, secure payments, and compliant cross-border shipping.

Each order goes through a clear, step-by-step workflow to keep transactions transparent and predictable.

Step 1: Send Your Order

To begin, clients share product details—such as a link, photo, or description. If a Vietnamese supplier or online shop has already been identified, ZendEase can coordinate directly with them to verify product availability and price. Within 24 to 36 hours, the ZendEase team confirms the item’s availability and total cost, including any local delivery fees in Vietnam. This ensures clients receive a complete, upfront quotation before proceeding.

Step 2: Confirm and Settle Payment

All Pasabuy transactions are pay-first basis to secure and validate each purchase. ZendEase accepts payment in either PHP or VND:

• In PHP: The item cost in VND is converted using the Google rate plus a 5% remittance fee.
  Example: ₫1,000,000 ≈ ₱2,200 → total ₱2,310 including fees.
• In VND: Payment can be made locally with an additional ₫100,000 handling fee per transaction.

Step 3: Choose a Shipping Option

Once items are purchased, ZendEase will provide a shipping quotation and timeline. Clients may select between air freight for faster delivery or sea freight for more economical transport.

• Air Freight: VND 330,000 per kilogram, weekly schedule.
  Estimated delivery time: 5–7 days after flight departure.
• Sea Freight: VND 150,000 per kilogram, twice monthly.

All shipments are processed on a payment-first basis to secure cargo space and customs documentation. Additional domestic courier fees apply for last-mile handling outside Metro Manila.

Step 4: Receive Your Order

Upon arrival in the Philippines, clients can:

• Pick up their parcels from the ZendEase Manila warehouse or
• request delivery via trusted local couriers.

Whether for personal use or business reselling, all shipments are tracked, consolidated, and released under ZendEase’s international forwarding network to maintain reliability and efficiency.

Compliance and Restrictions

Examples include flammable or pressurized goods, liquids and gels, batteries, perishable food, agricultural products, and counterfeit items.

ZendEase reviews all declared goods before shipment to ensure compliance with both Vietnamese and Philippine customs regulations. Clients are advised to confirm item eligibility before purchase to avoid delays.
