Passed in December 2025 and in force since March 2026. This is current law, not a proposal, and the first compliance deadlines arrive in 2027.
Applies across Vietnam's AI value chain. You can be in scope without a local office, and foreign providers must appoint a local representative.
Three tiers by impact: light-touch controls for low-risk tools, up to conformity assessment and human-oversight duties for high-risk systems. Know your tier first.
AI-generated audio, image and video must be labelled and machine-readable. A visible duty that applies the moment you publish.

The framework is law, but much of the detail is still being drafted. Build your foundations now and you'll be ready when the decrees land, not scrambling after them.

We'll help you understand your requirements and have a specialised practice to help you build a clear, provable roadmap toward compliance that is locally applicable and globally aligned.
