Domestic Drug Production Target by 2030
The Vietnam Opportunity
Vietnam's pharmaceutical industry has transformed dramatically since the country joined the Pharmaceutical Inspection Co-operation Scheme (PIC/S) in 2017. Under government policy Decision 1165/QD-TTg, Vietnam targets producing 60% of essential medicines domestically by 2030.
For pharma manufacturers, this means:
- Stricter equipment standards — DAV Circular 35/2018/TT-BYT requires WHO GMP-compliant packaging equipment for all pharmaceutical production.
- ASEAN export opportunities — Vietnam-manufactured drugs with proper GMP compliance can access Indonesia, Philippines, Thailand markets via ASEAN MRA.
- EU/US export potential — PIC/S membership opens doors to regulated markets, but requires 21 CFR Part 11 compatible equipment.
- Cost pressure — Competing with Indian generic exporters requires equipment ROI justification.
This is exactly where HIJ Machinery serves Vietnam manufacturers — European-standard equipment quality at smart pricing, with full DAV/ASEAN/PIC/S documentation.

- Cleaning validation: Equipment must support documented cleaning procedures with cleanability verification (CIP/SIP or disassembly).
- Calibration: All measuring instruments (temperature, pressure, speed, dose volume) must be calibrated against traceable standards.
- Change control: Documented procedures for equipment modifications, including software updates and parts replacements.
- ASEAN MRA alignment: Equipment producing drugs for ASEAN export must additionally meet ASEAN GMP requirements (essentially WHO GMP).

Vietnam Visits

Forester Xiang on Vietnam Pharma
Founder & CEO · 20+ Years · 100+ Pharma Audits
I've personally visited 15+ pharmaceutical manufacturing facilities across Vietnam — from the Mekong Delta to Hanoi, including major industrial parks like VSIP Bac Ninh, Bien Hoa, and Long An. Vietnam's pharma transformation since joining PIC/S in 2017 has been remarkable.
What I see consistently in Vietnam: manufacturers serious about ASEAN and EU export need equipment that does more than meet WHO GMP — it must integrate cleanly with their PIC/S inspection processes. That's where many imported machines fall short.
Vietnam manufacturers shouldn't have to choose between European pricing and Chinese quality gaps. HIJ exists to close that gap — every blister machine we ship to Vietnam is configured for DAV inspection from day one. No surprises. No paperwork scrambling. No second visit by inspectors.

Is HIJ blister packaging machine compliant with Vietnam DAV regulations?
Yes. All HIJ blister packaging machines comply with Vietnam Drug Administration (DAV/Cục Quản lý Dược) regulations under Circular 35/2018/TT-BYT, WHO GMP TRS 961 Annex 6, ASEAN GMP guidelines, and PIC/S standards adopted by Vietnam in 2017. Complete validation documentation (DQ/IQ/OQ/PQ) prepared in accordance with these standards is included with every machine.
How long does shipping take from China to Vietnam?
Production lead time is 12–16 weeks from order confirmation. Sea shipping from Wenzhou/Shanghai to Ho Chi Minh City (Cat Lai port) takes 5–7 days, to Hai Phong port takes 4–6 days.

Does HIJ provide on-site installation and training in Vietnam?
Yes. HIJ provides on-site installation, commissioning, IQ/OQ/PQ validation support, and operator training in Vietnam.

On-site service typically scheduled 2–3 weeks after machine arrival at customer's facility.
Can HIJ machines handle Vietnam's tropical humidity climate?
Yes. HIJ blister packaging machines for Vietnam are tropicalized — equipped with anti-corrosion 316L stainless steel construction, sealed electrical cabinets (IP54+), enhanced cooling systems, and humidity-resistant components. We've supplied machines operating in Mekong Delta (90%+ humidity), Hanoi monsoon conditions, and Da Nang coastal climates. Special tropical packaging available on request for ocean shipping.
What blister materials work best for Vietnam pharma products?
For Vietnam's tropical climate, we recommend: PVDC-coated PVC for moisture-sensitive tablets (most common); Alu-Alu cold form for hygroscopic APIs and effervescent products (mandatory for high-humidity exposure); Standard PVC for hard-coated tablets with low moisture sensitivity. HIJ machines support all three materials with quick changeover (under 30 minutes) — important for Vietnam manufacturers running multiple product lines.
Do HIJ blister machines meet Vietnam ASEAN export requirements?
Yes. HIJ machines meet ASEAN GMP standards required for Vietnam pharmaceutical exports to Indonesia, Philippines, Thailand, Malaysia, and other ASEAN markets. Optional 21 CFR Part 11 compliance available for Vietnam manufacturers exporting to US/EU markets.
