With the increasing frequency of economic and trade exchanges between China and Vietnam, the demand for business Chinese-Vietnamese translation is constantly growing. Maintaining the source text's cultural characteristics while aligning with Vietnamese expressive conventions is crucial in Chinese–Vietnamese business translation. The domestication translation strategy prioritizes the target text's natural fluency, making it easy for target readers to understand. Conversely, the foreignization translation strategy emphasizes preserving the source language's cultural elements and cross-cultural distinctions. Using specific examples, this paper compares how domestication and foreignization are applied and how effective they are in business Chinese-Vietnamese translation. It offers practical guidance for cross-border business communication and for teaching Business Chinese.
