#VietnamCryptoPolicy Vietnam has taken a significant step in clarifying its crypto policy with the recent passage of the Law on Digital Technology Industry. This landmark legislation, effective January 1, 2026, officially recognizes "crypto assets" and "virtual assets" within its legal framework.
This move moves Vietnam out of a regulatory "grey zone," aiming to establish a clear and regulated environment for digital assets. The law empowers the government to develop detailed guidelines, including licensing, compliance, consumer protection, and robust Anti-Money Laundering (AML) standards, aligning with international best practices. This proactive approach signals Vietnam's ambition to become a digital technology hub and attract investment in the burgeoning digital economy.
