On 28 February 2026, the Prime Minister of Vietnam issued Decision No. 367/QĐ-TTg approving a plan for the implementation of the Artificial Intelligence Law (Law No. 134/2025/QH15). The decision assigns the Ministry of Science and Technology to coordinate nationwide implementation and requires ministries and local authorities to review existing legislation to ensure consistency with the law. The implementation plan provides for the development of several implementing instruments, including a government decree detailing the Artificial Intelligence Law and a decree establishing a National Artificial Intelligence Development Fund. The plan also foresees the issuance of Prime Ministerial decisions on datasets for artificial intelligence development and on the classification of high-risk artificial intelligence systems. In addition, the Ministry of Science and Technology is tasked with issuing a circular establishing a national artificial intelligence ethics framework. Implementation measures beginning in 2026 also include updating the national artificial intelligence strategy, developing artificial intelligence human resources, and establishing infrastructure such as a national artificial intelligence portal, shared computing resources, and innovation clusters.
