To send any product internationally from eBay U.S., you must have a physical address in the U.S. This address will be used to receive products from eBay. But you are probably asking how you may have a physical address in the United States if you don’t live there or have family who lives in there.
There are several firms situated in the United States that provide consumers with US addresses and will also assist with overseas delivery. These businesses are known as freight forwarders. If you register an account with them, they will provide you with a US-based address to which you may ship any and all items ordered from US-based businesses and services.
The product is accepted on your behalf by the freight forwarder. When the shipment arrives, the freight forwarder will ship it directly to you in Vietnam. If you have many packages, they can combine your packages into a single order. This way, you will receive all of your products at once rather than one per time. The advantage of this service is that you may place your purchase from anywhere in the U.S. and have it transported to Vietnam.

Follow the following step-to-step guide to know how to buy an item on eBay and ship it to Vietnam.
Assume that we are going to buy this Canon camera.
You have to check whether the item you select is right or wrong through its name since the products sometimes are quite the same. In this example, the full name of the Canon camera is Canon EOS R5 45.0MP Mirrorless Camera - Black (Body Only).
There is other information that is also necessary to check is the feedback, eBay name, top-rated, and vendor reviews of the seller.
Besides, don’t forget to check the product’s shipping details and payment method, including:
After that, you should spend some time reading all the descriptions of the product which is provided by the seller carefully to reduce danger while purchasing. This is the most crucial aspect.
Finally, just take time to read the ratings and reviews of previous buyers who bought the item you want to buy to help you have a practical view of it.
Or the product status, which contains the following statuses: new, use, brand new, MINT, NEAR MINT, EXCELLENT, GREAT, AVERAGE, FAIR, POOR, REPAIR STOCK/PARTS, new without tags, new with tags, refurbished, reconditioned, and seller refurbished.
In this Canon camera example, its condition is new, which you can see in the below photo.
You must check whether the product you want to buy is still available or out of stock. Does it have enough quantity for you to buy if you want to buy with a large quantity? In the example, the camera is still available and the maximum quantity is 12 cameras.
This can be the most important step and is considered by the majority of buyers. Since eBay is an e-commerce platform, it has numerous retail stores that provided the same product, same quality, but at different prices. You must check the price and compare it to other stores to find the one that has a reasonable price to buy.

When you completed your shipping information, you will see that there is an estimated delivery time that is shown under the shipping information, in the review item and shipping box. Depending on where you want to ship the product, the estimated delivery time can be long or short. One more thing you should concern about is the shipping fee. Some products may have shipping fees while others are free shipping. The fee of shipping to other countries can be a bit expensive based on specific situations.
In this example, since we want to deliver the camera to Vietnam, the delivery time can be a bit long, but luckily you do not need to pay the shipping fee.
This is important since in case of there is something happens with the product you order, you can contact the seller to resolve the problem or change to another similar product or return it. There are terms that you should notice:
After checking everything related to the item like the product information, shipment, payment methods, ratings, etc., it is the time you make the final decision whether to buy it or not.
