Vietnam Law on Digital Transformation
Connect digital transformation programs, systems, platforms, and infrastructure to accountable evidence
Manage digital transformation programs, cross-framework obligations, and roadmap readiness under Law 148/2025/QH15.
Why the Law on Digital Transformation Matters
Law 148/2025/QH15 is Vietnam's active horizontal parent framework for digital governance. Issued 11 December 2025 and effective 1 July 2026, it supersedes the Law on Information Technology 67/2006/QH11, subject to transitional provisions.
It is not a single-topic law. It spans digital transformation strategy and programs, digital systems and platforms, digital infrastructure, and digital government, economy, and society. Specialist areas such as data, electronic transactions, cybersecurity, telecommunications, and artificial intelligence remain governed by their respective legislation. Because it cuts across so many domains, the practical challenge is coordination: the same program can touch data protection, cybersecurity, AI, e-commerce, telecommunications, and electronic transactions at once.
ComplianceOne treats the law as a horizontal parent framework that connects those obligations without duplicating them. Digital transformation programs, systems, and platforms are governed records with owners, evidence, and cross-framework links.
Decision 268/QĐ-TTg is the official implementation plan for the law. It is a planning and coordination reference, not the main compliance framework, and does not get its own customer-facing page.

The Digital Transformation Instrument Stack
Law 148/2025/QH15
Active Parent LawEffective 1 July 2026. The law establishes the horizontal legal framework for digital-transformation principles, digital systems and processes, digital infrastructure, digital government, the digital economy, the digital society, and the responsibilities of participating agencies, organisations, and individuals.
Data, electronic transactions, cybersecurity, telecommunications, artificial intelligence, and other specialist areas remain governed by their respective legislation, subject to consistency with the principles and requirements of this Law.
Decision 268/QĐ-TTg
Official Implementation PlanIssued 12 February 2026. The Prime Minister’s official plan for implementing the Law on Digital Transformation. It assigns responsibilities, implementation tasks, timelines, coordination, legal review, development of detailed instruments, communication, and monitoring.

How ComplianceOne Supports the Law
ComplianceOne maintains a governed inventory of digital transformation programs, projects, systems, platforms, and digital services, each with an owner, purpose, users, data categories, vendors, and cross-framework obligations.
Digital data governance links to Data Law, PDPL, the Data Security Draft, and cybersecurity evidence where data is processed, protected, or transferred, without duplicating those frameworks. Digital identity and transaction readiness connects to the EID/EAuth Draft and electronic transaction evidence where identity, authentication, e-signatures, and e-contracts are involved.
Digital infrastructure and resilience work links to telecom, cloud, data-center, and cybersecurity controls. Roadmap review keeps Decision 268 and future child instruments visible, with a scheduled review anchored to the law's effective date. Human review remains required before formal evidence or submission.

Without Structured Framework Operations
With ComplianceOne
Digital programs lose context about ownership, systems, data, and cross-framework obligations.
Digital transformation programs and systems have owned, reviewable records.Legacy IT-Law references are mixed with current obligations.Legacy and current framework records stay distinguishable.The implementation plan is confused with the substantive law.Decision 268 stays a roadmap reference, separate from the active law.Cross-framework evidence is copied into competing records.Cross-framework evidence is reused through links, not duplicated.Built for Digital Transformation Compliance Operations
Digital transformation programs remain governed through accountable ownership, structured evidence, scheduled reviews, and connected records across the organisation.
Cross-framework obligations stay connected across data, cybersecurity, AI, identity, infrastructure, and digital services without duplicating operational records.
Digital governance decisions, supporting evidence, and implementation progress remain reviewable throughout planning, delivery, audits, and regulatory oversight.
