The Vietnamese government has officially announced plans to launch a fully regulated digital asset trading framework by Q3 2026, according to a direct mandate from the Prime Minister’s office. The initiative is being led by a joint task force comprising the Ministry of Finance, the State Bank of Vietnam, and the Ministry of Justice.
The framework will include a regulatory sandbox allowing domestic and international financial institutions to test digital asset services, alongside Anti-Money Laundering and Know Your Customer protocols tailored to the Vietnamese market. Vietnam is also exploring the integration of a central bank digital currency to serve as the primary liquidity bridge for regulated trading platforms.
