Summary/Abstract: In 2006, the European Commission indicated a group of ASEAN countries to become a priority and a potential market within the program of mutual economic development. Following two years of negotiations which commenced in 2007, the EC resigned from further talks and it was decided to continue the process with individual countries in the bilateral format. The Socialist Republic of Vietnam (SRV) had moved to the forefront of other Asiatic countries with which the EC has been negotiating free trade agreements. On the 4th of August 2015, the EC officially informed about a political conclusion of negotiations with SRV on the agreement to create a free trade zone. Lifting the non-tariff barriers and simplifying the administrative procedures for bringing commodities into Vietnam, as stipulated by the EVFTA agreement, will undoubtedly facilitate conquering the attractive Vietnam’s market by the EU exporters, including those from Poland.
