Chile is Vietnam’s fourth-largest trading partner in Latin America, with a total import-export turnover of nearly 2 billion USD. Vietnam and Chile are among the few nations on opposite sides of the Pacific Ocean that are both party to two extensive trade liberalization frameworks: the Vietnam-Chile Free Trade Agreement (VCFTA) and the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP).

On the occasion of the official visit to Vietnam by the President of the Republic of Chile, Mr. José Antonio Kast, the Vietnam Chamber of Commerce and Industry (VCCI)—in coordination with the Embassy of the Republic of Chile in Vietnam and the Chilean Export Promotion Bureau (ProChile)—is organizing the Vietnam-Chile Business Forum, as follows:

Time: 08:15 – 11:00, Monday, November 16, 2026

Venue: Melia Hotel, 44B Ly Thuong Kiet, Cua Nam Ward, Hanoi

Agenda: Please see the attachment.

This forum offers an opportunity for Vietnamese enterprises to hear directly from President Kast, and to engage with Chilean ministers, representatives from trade promotion agencies, and business associations. Participants will gain insights into the Chilean market, business environment, policies, and potential for cooperation and investment—particularly in sectors such as food, agricultural products, transportation, and import-export—thereby expanding economic and commercial collaboration between the business communities of both nations.

VCCI cordially invites representatives from your enterprise/organization to attend this Forum. Interested delegates are requested to complete the registration form at the following link: https://forms.gle/GTYpVcDbc77AY3Bk8 by November 12, 2026. As the number of available spots is limited, the Organizing Committee will prioritize those who register early.
