INTRODUCTION
United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG or Convention) has become increasingly popular in the role of an umbrella governing the international goods trading on a global scale. Vietnam, as the 84th member of the CISG, is not the exception to the foregoing. Nonetheless, case law involving the interpretation and applicability of CISG in Vietnam is still limited in number. Henceforth, it is worth revisiting the theoretical and practical approach of the preceding case practices in other jurisdictions so as to provide a glimpse indication and anticipation for similar cases that may be occurred in the future.

In particular, Part 1 shall refer to the issues on acceptance while Part 2 shall discuss the rejection of goods under the CISG.
