🇻🇳 Vietnam Targets First Crypto Licenses in 2026

🚀 Vietnam is moving toward issuing its first crypto-asset service provider licenses in 2026 under a five-year pilot framework.

📋 The regime focuses on AML controls, custody, cybersecurity, risk management, investor-asset protection, and transaction monitoring. Authorities began accepting license applications in January 2026.

🌏 If implemented successfully, licensed platforms could move more crypto activity from Vietnam’s previous gray-market environment into a supervised framework.

⚠️ The exact number of licenses and final implementation will depend on regulatory decisions. The pilot framework allows the Ministry of Finance to select up to five providers.

👀 Could Vietnam’s crypto licensing pilot become a model for other Southeast Asian markets?
