witnessed rapid and complex fluctuations from USChina economic relations, fluctuations in economic-political relations between countries and especially the impact of the Covid-19 epidemic on all socio-economic sectors These events have led to great losses of some industries such as tourism, aviation, etc But at the same time, it also opens up opportunities for other industries, one of which is the steel industry In 2021, it is forecasted that Vietnam's economy will recover and grow by over 6%, so the demand for iron and steel in construction will also increase sharply The real estate and infrastructure construction industry will recover when the Government simultaneously implements major public investment projects such as Long Thanh airport, North South expressway as well as some other highways across the country With this situation, the steel market will likely set a new price level that will be established and adjusted according to the supply-demand relationship In order to support domestic steel producers in lowering product costs, increasing competitiveness with imported steel, preferential import tax rates (MFN) for raw materials for steel production are prescribed at low levels of 0% (group 72.03), 3% (group 72.04) and 1% for steel billet (group 72.06) The regulation of low import tax rates for steel production materials in recent years has contributed to promoting the domestic steel industry to reduce input costs and expand production and business In addition, Vietnam is currently a member of 14 free trade agreements, special preferential import tax rates in some of these Agreements for relatively low construction steel products such as ASEAN Agreement (ATIGA), Vietnam-Japan (VJFTA), Vietnam Korea (VKFTA), etc With the conditions and opportunities created, this is a good chance to import steel raw materials into production Currently, China is the largest steel export market in the world and also the largest steel import market of Vietnam with more than 50%, with 1.88 million tons, equivalent to 1.27 billion USD China's steel industry production capacity is billions of tons per year, about 30% is used domesticly and mostly for export abroad Chinese steel has the advantage of large-scale production, is supported by price support policies when exporting from the Government, export banks of the country Therefore, Chinese steel prices have a huge competitive advantage On the other hand, China has favorable geographical conditions with Vietnam so the import of raw materials from China accounts for a large proportion All of the above factors have caused the steel industry in general and Viet Duc Steel Pipe Joint Stock Company to increase the import of steel raw materials from China to serve domestic and export demand During the practice at Viet Duc Steel Pipe Joint Stock Company's import and export department, I had the opportunity to contact and get acquainted with the company's international trade activities, apply learning knowledge on the lecture hall to specific situations, grasp the situation of the import process at the company Noticing that in the process of importing steel coils from the Chinese market, there are many shortcomings Starting from being aware of the importance of conducting the import process in the company's commercial business and wishing to be able to effectively apply the knowledge equipped at the Academy of Policy and Development, I chose the topic : “Complete the procedure of importing stell coils from China market of Viet Duc Steel Pipe Joint Stock Company "to study in this thesis 1.2 Research overview The topic " Complete the process of importing " of a specific item from a particular market is not new and is studied by many students of universities There are a number of similar research works such as: "Solutions to complete the process of importing medical equipment from the Chinese market of East Asia Medical Equipment Joint Stock Company", by Vo Thi Ngoc Huyen, 2013 essay, Faculty of International Trade, University of Commerce analyzed the process of imporing medical equipment from the Chinese market as well as proposing a number of solutions to improve business efficiency for East Asia Medical Equipment Joint Stock Company "Complete the efficiency of importing household equipment of Minexport Mineral Import Export Joint Stock Company", by Nguyen Tien Cuong, 2020 essay, Faculty of International Business, National Economics University analyzed and evaluated the efficiency of importing household equipment "Some solutions to improve the process of importing machinery and equipment from The Japanese market of Hanoi Mechanical Products Import and Export Co., Ltd", by Pham Thu Hoai, 2018 essay, Faculty of International Trade, University of Commerce analyzed the process of importing machinery and equipment from the Japanese market and proposed some sulutions for improving the process The above research works have analyzed the process of importing finished products from a specific market and proposed some solutions but there is no topic that mentioned solutions to complete the process of importing raw materials for production of finished products and domestic sales 1.3 Research purposes Through studying the business process of importing steel coils from the Chinese market of Viet Duc Steel Pipe Joint Stock Company in conditions of integration, research objectives towards the following issues: - Systemization of reasoning issues related to import activities and import of input materials for production in particular - Analysis and assess the situation of the procedure of importing steel coils from the Chinese market of Viet Duc Steel Pipe Joint Stock company - Based on the analysis and evaluation, propose solutions to complete the procedure of importing steel coils from the Chinese market of Viet Duc Steel Pipe Joint Stock company 1.4 Subjects and scope of study Subjects of research of the topic: the procedure of importing steel coils from the Chinese market of Viet Duc Steel Pipe Joint Stock Company 10 reduce some of works that the company has to handle, especially researching, and chartering international cargo ships but will increase import costs, resulting in the inable reduction of finished product prices to increase competitiveness with domestic competitors  Causes of existence The shortcomings in market research activities are because most of the current partners are old available partners, long-term business relationships with the company, so it does not stimulate the establishment of a department specializing in research and finding more partners in foreign markets Moreover, this is a very expensive and complex operation that the company has almost no need to expand its supply The shortcomings in not let employees be more proactive in trading, negotiating and signing contracts are because the Board of Directors has not really believed in the working capacity of employees and the power also focuses too much on the leaders of superiors The shortcomings of the lack of employees with import and export expertise and good foreign language skills are due to the policy of the Board of Management of the company not focusing on creating conditions for import and export employees to make transactions and negotiate with foreign partners, so they not select candidates with good foreign language skills but only candidates can read import and export documents In addition, the Board of Management and human services department believe that the specialties can be trained after candidates are received and in direct contact with the job That's not wrong, but it will make training new employees more difficult and time-consuming 62 The shortcomings of inactivity in import prices are due to the company's lack of research and understanding of international shipping carriers, so it is feared that choosing to import at FOB prices will bring risks and costs to solve this risk may be higher than importing at higher prices - CIF prices Moreover, importing at CIF prices is also aimed at shortening the time and reducing importing activities 63 CHAPTER 3: SOLUTIONS TO IMPROVE THE EFFICIENCY OF THE PROCESS OF IMPORTING STEEL COILS FROM CHINA OF VIET DUC STEEL PIPE JOINT STOCK COMPANY 3.1 Forecast of steel import into Vietnam market in the period of 2021-2025 Disadvantages In the context of the global COVID-19 pandemic, the world is in a serious crisis The COVID-19 pandemic directly triggered the crisis, but the source of the crisis involved a host of other factors, such as trade and oil disputes as well as political and strategic disputes between major countries Therefore, the nature and cycle of this crisis are very different from the classic notions of economic crisis in general Currently, it is not possible to accurately predict when the COVID-19 pandemic will end, how much harm the next crisis will cause, what the world economic recovery will be like At the same time, Britain triggers the Brexit clause The competition between major countries, especially between China and the U.S., raises a lot of uncertainty in the western Pacific, including the South China Sea issue Because of the highly open economy, Vietnam will face many negative effects from economic, financial - monetary disturbances and protection trends Without grasping the advantages brought about by the Industrial Revolution 4.0, the risk of lagging further is more serious, both in terms of "substance" and "quantity" Advantages Although the world economy in 2020 is considered not really positive, overall, the economic picture of Vietnam in the period of 2020-2025 will continue the increased motivations accumulated from the previous year and can receive more new challenges and opportunities, with more and more expectations along with technological innovation capacity 64 Firstly, the impact of the global V-shaped recovery model could help Vietnam grow higher, as Vietnam has become a more important center in the global manufacturing industry ecosystem Secondly, the strong impact from free trade agreements such as CPTPP, EVFTA or RCEP The benefits of the free trade agreements will enable Vietnam’s economic development to continue to shift away from exporting low-tech manufacturing products and primary goods to more complex high-tech goods like electronics, machinery, vehicles, and medical devices Thirdly, when public investment growth returns to normal growth, FDI can return to a leading role In 2021, it is forecasted that public investment disbursement growth will be difficult to continue the strong growth momentum However, FDI inflows are expected to increase sharply again when the Covid-19 epidemic is “under control" Fourth, domestic consumption will recover from 2021, which has a good impact on growth High consumer demand will stimulate production, the production not only meets domestic demand but also creates an opportunity to export goods, bringing a lot of profit Fifth, some economic restructuring activities such as: improving the business environment, in which many new laws will take effect from 2021 such as the Investment Law, the Enterprise Law, the Law on Securities, the Law on PublicPrivate Partnerships (PPP), the Law on Environmental Protection, etc Some StateEnterprises continue to be equitization It is important for the Government to remove the problems of enterprise estming and IPO/divestment procedures in order to restart equitization/divestment of state-owned enterprises in 2021  The steel industry in the period of 2021-2025 In Vietnam, the steel industry also faces many difficulties due to the Covid-19 epidemic, similar to the general situation of the global steel industry However, as SSI Research - Workshop on steel industry and stock market 65 of mid-2020, the steel market begins to recover Specifically, if in the first months of the year there was a decrease in production and consumption, then since July this industry has recovered In the first 11 months of 2020, steel production reached 23.3 million tons, up 1% over the same period in 2019 Notably, steel exports in 2020 recorded good growth, with exports reaching 9.86 million tons, worth nearly 5.26 billion USD, a sharp increase of nearly 48% in volume, an increase of 25% in value compared to 2019 According to the Vietnam Steel Association (VSA), accelerating the progress of local public investment projects in 2020 has contributed to boosting the consumption of the entire steel industry in the context of the bleak market because of the epidemic According to VSA, in the first months of 2021, steel exports of all kinds reached over million tons and increased by 67.4% over the same period VSA's specific figures show that, for crude steel, the whole country has produced 3,192,000 tons, up 28% over the same period in 2020 Consumption reached 3,126,000 tons, up 35% over the same period Finished steel of all kinds reached more than 4.7 million tons, up 30.3% over the same period in 2020 Consumption reached 3,897,428 tons, up 31.1% over the same period In particular, steel exports of all kinds reached 1,008,987 tons and increased 67.4% compared to the first months of 2020 This is considered a bright point of Vietnam steel market in February and the first months of 2021 Regarding the situation of production and consumption of construction steel, in February, the production of construction steel and product consumption decreased compared to January 2021 and the same period of 2020 but if the first months of 2021, the production and consumption of construction steel still maintained a slight increase in momentum over the same period Specifically, in the first months of 2021, construction steel production reached 1,625,368 tons, up 1.2% and consumption reached 1,280,160 tons, up 1% over the same period in 2020 Ministry of Industry and Trade – Import and Export Report 2020 Vietnam Steel Association - Electricity report from 22/02/2021 66 With the marked recovery of the steel industry from the last months of last year to the beginning of this year, it can be expected that the steel industry will have a positive outlook in 2021, steel demand is forecast to increase from 3-5% with the expectation of a recovery of macroeconomics, a strong wave of investment in infrastructure The steel industry will benefit greatly when large-scale infrastructure projects are being implemented such as North-South Expressway, Trung Luong - My Thuan Can Tho Expressway, Long Thanh International Airport Along with that, the housing market is forecast to be developed in 2021 This is also a factor that helps the steel industry grow In addition, in the face of opportunities from integration, especially the implementation of trade agreements, the removal of a series of tariffs will help Vietnamese steel enterprises expand their export markets In addition, the import of raw materials from countries that have signed FTAs will also help Vietnam benefit in price 3.2 Development orientation of Viet Duc Steel Pipe Joint Stock Company in the period of 2021-2025 3.2.1 General orientation Every year, Viet Duc Steel Pipe Joint Stock Company always holds an annual report meeting to summary the performance of all departments and give directions for the coming years

efficiency of the company's material import process Continue to build and maintain good relationships with old Chinese suppliers, while actively seeking new suppliers and markets; maximize all resources to invest in importing steel coils in particular and raw materials for production in general in order to develop business, bring profits and brand the company, create jobs, raise incomes for employees, participate well in implementing social policies Make plans to build a research and development department to expand the foreign import market, especially the Chinese market – the potential import market of the company Set out policies and measures to help import and export departments in general and import market research departments in particular develop strongly, constantly looking for information about current and potential suppliers, researching goods, supply markets to find the most suitable partners, best for the company Hire more employees with high import and export and foreign language qualifications, especially English and Chinese, and have a training program for new employees to quickly integrate into the company's working environment to improve work efficiency In addition, the company will set reward policies for employees with good performance at work as well as penalties or discipline for employees who not fulfill their assigned tasks well 69 3.3 Some solutions to complete the process of importing steel coils from the Chinese market of the company Solutions to promote strengths Focus on improving management capacity, building modes of operation according to modern market economic institutions Reforming operational policies for each department and each sector Continue to add more personnel for the missing positions, add a team of leading experts to develop the company, strengthen the capacity to control, inspect the cradle, organize the inspection and supervision of the performance of work as assigned Supervise the activities of the Board of Directors and company managers to ensure the company's activities achieve its objectives, fulfill tasks and develop sustainably Continue to maintain good relationships with current Chinese partners as well as domestic banking partners in order to conduct activities for favorable imports Strengthening, consolidating and stabilizing financial capacity, strengthening financial regulations, implementing a number of effective measures to deal with complex developments in the new period, such as issues of exchange rate fluctuations and policy changes to help import activities take place smoothly rapid Solutions for the existing problems Improving professional qualifications for employees in the company In the current conditions, when our country is strongly integrate with the regional and world economy, any enterprise that wants to get good business results needs human resources and high qualifications, capable of meeting the change in the requirements of the job That is especially important for companies with international business activities in general and hunger for Viet Duc Steel Pipe Joint Stock Company in particular Based on the company's situation and the company's development orientation in the near future, I find that the company desperately needs plans and solutions to select, train and arrange human resources for its business activities Due to the limitations 70 on the scope of research of the topic, I would only like to offer some solutions on recruitment, training and labor placement for Viet Duc Steel Pipe Joint Stock Company in the field of import Firstly, the company needs to have its own department in charge of market research The work related to market research needs to be done professionally and effectively Because this can be considered the most decisive activity to the efficiency of the import process Market research can help the company expand its supply market, the opportunity to choose a more profitable partner with the company; research on partners and items thoroughly to avoid risks in international business activities in general and imports in particular Secondly, the selection and training of employees for the import department of the company must be carried out in a scientific and well-trained way, which must set specific criteria and requirements for employers Specifically, the company needs to make a plan to recruit personnel for the import department, recruitment notice (in the recruitment notice stating the requirements that candidates need such as: qualifications in international trade activities, communication ability, etc), receiving documents, conducting interviews and selecting those who best meet the requirements of the import department Those who meet the requirements will be signed a trial contract within 2-3 months During the trial period, the company will assign them to perform certain tasks related to import activities such as: email transactions, making offers to open LC, declaring customs, preparing documents for drivers to receive goods After the trial period, those who meet the requirements of the company and have the need to work will sign a formal labor contract The management of receiving members must be carried out regularly and flexibly, giving public forms of reward and discipline to encourage employees to promote their capacity, devote themselves to the company, on the other hand limit weaknesses so that they can improve their professional skills Improve the efficiency of trading, negotiation and signing of contracts 71 In import activities, transactions and negotiations are important stages that must be had before coming to the signing of contracts Therefore, in order to reach a contract, both parties must reach the agreements based on the objectives set by each party The company needs to carefully study and apply the basic principles in negotiating foreign trade contracts such as: the common interests of both parties need to be of top concern, negotiation must be public and equal, the contract negotiator is the one who knows how to compromise, knows how to make a plan and determines the right negotiating objectives In order to achieve the best results in trading, besides applying direct trading methods as the company regularly conducts, it is possible to consider expanding the application of some other methods such as intermediary trading or through exhibition assistants The company should let import and export department employees be more proactive in negotiating and dealing with partners so that they can improve their professional expertise as well as communication and negotiation skills with foreign partners Moreover, the proactive negotiation will help import and export employees understand the terms of the contract to take the next steps in the process smoothly and effectively The Board of Directors can still monitor and supervise this activity so that it can be handled appropriately in the event of an incident because international trade carries a lot of risks, especially the risk of cultural differences such as language, customs, etc Thus, the negotiator with the Company's Chinese partners needs to meet the requirements such as:  Basic information in the contract: information about goods, information about the market, prices, information about partners, information and terms of arbitration information about mechanisms and policies for import and export management in the country, especially during the trading period, negotiations and other relevant information  Good at the language used in negotiations (especially Chinese by the company's partners who are largely Chinese, Taiwanese partners and on import contracts machinery equipment may be accompanied by Chinese technical documents) Having good employees in foreign languages, especially English and 72 Chinese is essential to create the company's proactive and professional while dealing with foreign partners  An understanding of China's laws, policies, trade laws and customs as well as international trade laws and customs  Grasp the skills related to the purchase and sale of goods, namely the materials and machinery that the company regularly imports  Grasp the company's products to introduce to partners, understand the financial situation of the company  Ability to convince, negotiate with the partners Enhance learning and expand import price conditions The company should study to carry out the import of goods at FOB prices because at this price the company can buy goods at a cheaper price since the company researches and leases the vessel itself or entrusts shipping to which unit is most beneficial to save on fees for the company In addition, the implementation of chartering, buying insurance will make the company more proactive in delivery, transportation and insurance However, applying FOB price imports will increase the risk for the company, so it requires the qualifications of the import staff to be good 73 CONCLUSION Import and export has been opening up many new opportunities and challenges for our country In order to support importing enterprises in general, raw material enterprises for production in particular, the Party and the State have made a lot of priorities and incentives In the current period, when the country is in the process of industrialization and modernization of the country and to recover after Covid-19 pademic, the demand for raw materials produced in chemical-industries is increasingly enhanced Meeting this demand of consumers, Viet Duc Steel Pipe Joint Stock Company has constantly increased imports to expand production, adequate and timely supply of products to the market This is done based on the supervision and management of the process of importing raw materials from the company's main market, China - a diverse market, suitable for the needs of Vietnamese consumers 74 REFERENCE LIST Textbooks, lectures
