The National Assembly of Vietnam has adopted a Law on Digital Technology Industry, which will introduce official regulation of digital assets starting January 1, 2026. Information about this appeared in local media.
The law divides digital assets into "virtual" and "crypto assets." The document excludes definitions of securities and digital fiat currencies. The law tasks the government with developing conditions for conducting crypto business, classification, and oversight measures for the market.
In addition to cryptocurrencies, the law provides for tax incentives, land subsidies, and support for AI companies, semiconductors, and digital infrastructure. The document also proposes the implementation of cybersecurity norms and anti-money laundering measures in accordance with FATF recommendations.
