VOV.VN - E-commerce is a new consumer trend and an important driver of Vietnam's economy, accounting for around 11% of total retail sales and making Vietnam one of the most dynamic markets in Southeast Asia.

The Ministry of Industry and Trade (MoIT) on February 2 hosted the E-commerce Forum 2026 under the theme of enhancing management capacity and strategic orientation for sustainable development, as one of the key activities held within the framework of the first Glorious Spring Fair 2026.

2026 marks a turning point for Vietnam’s fast-evolving e-commerce sector, shifting from high-speed expansion to a more regulated, standardised phase that levels the playing field for multichannel and cross-border platforms.

The Presidential Office on January 6 held a press conference to announce the State President’s orders promulgating 12 laws passed at the 10th session of the 15th National Assembly.

The Government has issued Resolution No. 352/NQ-CP approving the contents of the draft Law on E-commerce.
