VIETNAM CIVIL CRYPTOGRAPHY OVERLAY [ACTIVE]
Evidence for Regulated Civil Cryptography Activity
For in-scope product, service, import/export, and conformity activities; reference-only for ordinary users.
Why the Vietnam Civil Cryptography Decree Matters
Decree 211/2025/NĐ-CP was issued by the Government of Vietnam on 25 July 2025 and took effect on 9 September 2025. The Government Cipher Committee (Ban Cơ yếu Chính phủ) is the lead authority. It is an active, scope-triggered security-control overlay for civil-cryptography businesses, controlled products and services, import/export activity, and conformity evaluation, applying directly to civil-cryptography product and service businesses, organizations importing or exporting civil-cryptography products, trust service providers, security product and service providers, telecom/cloud/data-center security teams, and other regulated entities using controlled cryptography products.
It is not a general encryption implementation guide. Organizations using ordinary cryptography should not assume direct scope without confirming the activity criteria; outside that scope, ComplianceOne represents it as reference-only, producing no deadlines or score contribution.
Structured ownership, evidence, and review help teams demonstrate what was assessed, who approved it, and how related frameworks were considered. ComplianceOne supports that operational work without providing legal advice or guaranteeing compliance.

Dimension
Coverage
Instrument
Decree 211/2025/NĐ-CP on Civil Cryptography, issued 25 July 2025, effective 9 September 2025, Government Cipher Committee as lead authority.
Scope
Civil-cryptography businesses, controlled-product importers/exporters, trust service providers, security product/service providers, telecom/cloud/data-center security teams, and related regulated entities.
Operational themes
Business licensing readiness; product and service classification; import/export licensing screening; product conformity evidence; vendor and procurement due diligence; cryptographic key and control governance; trust-service and cybersecurity cross-links.
Evidence
Applicability assessments, product/service screening records, export/import screening, conformity evaluation records, vendor due-diligence records, key/control records, and a compliance dossier checklist.
Official forms
Six verified customer-filing forms from Phụ lục III – Mẫu số 01, 02, 03, 04, 05, and 07 – covering the business licence application, licence amendment, technical plan, business plan, confidentiality/network-security plan, and export/import licence application.
Status
Active optional security-control overlay, installed reference-only until direct scope is confirmed.
How ComplianceOne Supports Decree 211/2025/NĐ-CP
ComplianceOne connects the applicability assessment, product/service classification, and export/import licensing screening into one controlled workspace, so scope decisions and their supporting evidence stay together instead of scattered across spreadsheets.
For licence preparation, the platform brings the six verified Mẫu số forms – the business licence application, amendment/reissue/extension request, technical plan, business plan, confidentiality and network-information-security plan, and export/import licence application – into the same workspace as the underlying evidence: conformity evaluation records, key and control records, and vendor due-diligence findings. Authority-issued forms keep their official Mẫu số identifiers; the seven internal working templates (applicability assessment, product/service screening, export/import screening, conformity evaluation record, vendor due-diligence record, key/control record, and dossier checklist) stay clearly labeled as platform-prepared aids.
Where civil-cryptography activity overlaps trust services, cybersecurity, or data-security work, the same underlying evidence can be cross-linked without duplicating obligations or changing each instrument's legal role.
