According to reports from Vietnamese media The Investor, the National Assembly of Vietnam passed the "Digital Technology Industry Law" on June 14, 2025, which for the first time incorporates crypto assets into the national legal framework and provides clear classification and regulation. The new law divides digital assets into two categories: "virtual assets" and "crypto assets", excluding financial instruments such as securities and digital fiat currency, and grants the government the authority to formulate detailed regulations while emphasizing requirements for cybersecurity, anti-money laundering, and counter-terrorism financing. This law will come into effect on January 1, 2026, aiming to improve the legal system and align with international standards in order to strive for an early exit from the FATF grey list.
