(Free Release) Vietnam Market Research Report | Full Text of the Decree on Vietnam's Domestic Carbon Exchange (January 19, 2026)

Significance of Reading This Decree

The significance of reading this decree lies in the fact that it allows stakeholders to confirm from a primary source that Vietnam's carbon market has moved beyond mere policy conception and has entered a concrete institutional phase for registering, managing, and trading emission allowances and carbon credits.

Previously, Vietnam's decarbonization policies were primarily focused on broad strategic directions such as greenhouse gas reduction targets, emissions reporting, carbon credit utilization, and the future introduction of an emissions trading system. However, this decree specifically outlines the organization and operation of a domestic carbon exchange, including the registration of emission allowances and carbon credits, domestic code assignment, ownership transfer, custody, trading, settlement, clearing, and the roles of relevant agencies.

In other words, this decree serves as the foundational document for understanding how 'emissions' and 'carbon credits' will be institutionally managed in Vietnam and through what procedures they will become tradable assets. In particular, for companies operating in manufacturing, energy, logistics, real estate, construction, materials, food, and export-related businesses in Vietnam, this may lead to significant institutional changes regarding future emissions management, allowance allocation, carbon credit utilization, supply chain decarbonization, and environmental cost transparency.

Additionally, for companies interested in carbon credit generation, renewable energy, energy efficiency, forest- and agriculture-based credits, GX-related investments, ESG finance, and decarbonization consulting, this decree serves as a foundational document for identifying potential business opportunities in the Vietnamese market.

By reviewing this decree at an early stage, companies can more easily understand subsequent detailed circulars, ministerial decrees, and implementation guidelines once they are published. This enables them to proactively grasp the institutional design, participation criteria, trading rules, management systems, and business opportunities within Vietnam's carbon market.

Therefore, this document is an essential primary source for companies currently operating in Vietnam, those considering future entry into Vietnam, businesses exploring new ventures in GX and decarbonization fields, and analysts studying environmental policies and carbon markets, all of whom need it for strategic planning.
