International conflict and impacts on our bookstore

International conflict and impacts on our bookstore

Dear Viet Bookstore community,

We wanted to share a quick and honest update with you.

Recent military strikes involving the U.S., Iran, and Israel have created instability across parts of the Middle East, and those effects are reaching international shipping networks. As global air and sea routes adjust, some shipments may experience delays, rerouting, or higher transportation costs.

For a small independent bookstore like ours, international logistics are an important part of how books and cultural products make their way from Vietnam to readers abroad. When global shipping lanes become less predictable, it can affect restock timing, transit speed, and overall fulfillment schedules.

We are continuing to monitor the situation closely and are doing our best to minimize disruption wherever possible. At this time, some orders may take longer than usual to arrive, especially for items connected to international supply and restocking.

We truly appreciate your patience, understanding, and continued support. Every order placed with Viet Bookstore helps us keep Vietnamese books, stories, and cultural materials moving across borders and into homes that care deeply about staying connected to language and heritage.

Thank you for standing with our small business during moments of global uncertainty. We will continue to keep you updated as clearly and responsibly as we can.

With gratitude,
Viet Bookstore
