Since the LA audit pass rate is very low, an enterprise only has one chance to be certified. After meeting the qualifications, you can complete the entry through a channel dealer. In the process, you only need to provide:

1) Business license

2) Enterprise Alipay

3) p-card, Vietnam site currently requires p-card binding for payment
