Yes. They have FedEx, UPS, DHL.... Usually it takes three working days for package to arrive. This is express shipping service so it cost a lot.

Below is FedEx rate for shipping from Saigon (Vietnam) to USA:
1- 0,5kg : $45 / package
2- 1kg $64.8
3- 5kg: $96
3- 10kg: $251.5
4- 20kg: $416.5

5- 45 ~ 70kg $15,10/kg
6- 71 ~ 99kg $14,60
..........

* It is subject to 15% fuel charge.
* The more it weights, the less it costs per package.

There is no limit for total shipping weight, but limit the weight to 1,000kg per package.

I have used FedEx to send my company brochures from Vietnam to the US for more than 4 years and there has been no problem.

Here is the FedEx service phone number in Vietnam, just in case:
- Saigon: +(84.8) 811 9055
- Hanoi: +(84.4) 719 8787

Hope this can help and have a great trip to Vietnam. :)

you can send small packages back at any local post office. however they [ the post office] must inspect and do the packing for you. this takes time. if you are sending home something large or many items the seller will take care of the shipping for you . they are reliable. however the item will NOT be delivered to your home! rather it will be sent to the nearest port. at least this has been my personal experience. now i carry everything back myself.. about 70 lbs[ 30 kilo]..i go all over the country every 6 months for 8 yrs now and i've never seen ups of fed ex however every single time i go back i find the country more westernized and they may have them ...that would be real nice ... in the past i've used a private shipping company and it took me 2 days in sai gon and 2 days here at home[ and a 2 months waite inbetween] the get things delivered... in peices. good luck

UPS is the most expensive rip off merchant around.

Not enough info to give you a direct answer, but here are some comments.
There is no limit, but you will have to have it customs cleared here in the states unless you show a value of under USD $1,000 and use the post office but I dont recommend this. I would suggest you go to www.exel.com, they are a freight forwarder recent bought by DHL, and are still operating separately and much more user friendly than DHL. Find their office nearest to your home and give them a call, with some specifics like approximate wgt, value and commodities. Ask them for a full quote on "differed service" including customs clearance and delivery(you can pick it up at their local office for free if you want which you may want to as they charge a lot more for a home delivery than to a business.
The total time on defer ed service including customs clearance at destination would be about 10 days. If its less than 20/lbs then you might want an all in Price3 from DHL or Fedex.
Hope this helps.
