This podcast episode explores Vietnam's new Law on Data, effective July 1, 2025, and its implications for businesses. We'll break down the law's key aspects, including scope of application, digital data definitions, data ownership rights, regulations on cross-border data transfers (especially for "important" and "core" data), and the requirements for mandatory risk assessments. We also discuss data-related products and services, the establishment of the National General Database and National Data Centre, and practical steps businesses can take to ensure compliance and mitigate risks in Vietnam's evolving digital landscape.
