Dear Valued Clients,
We would like to inform you about significant changes that the Government of Vietnam has announced regarding its administrative boundaries. These changes will reshape certain provinces. They are part of a national effort to streamline local governance and enhance regional development.
These adjustments will take effect on 1st July 2025.
Major Changes in the Administrative Boundaries
Province Mergers
One of the most prominent changes involves merging several provinces. From 63 provinces, Vietnam will now have only 34 provinces. Notably, 10 provinces will remain unchanged. These include:
Hà Nội
Huế
Quảng Ninh
Cao Bằng
Lạng Sơn
Lai Châu
Điện Biên
Sơn La
Thanh Hóa
Nghệ An
Hà Tĩnh
Tuyên Quang
Changes in Administrative Levels
Another significant change is the restructuring of administrative units. Vietnam will now operate with only two administrative levels. Gone are the days of districts in addresses.
For example:
Old Format:
36/24/19 Street 4, Quarter 6, Hiep Binh Phuoc Ward, Thu Duc City, Ho Chi Minh, Vietnam
New Format:
36/24/19 Street 4, Quarter 6, Hiep Binh Ward, Ho Chi Minh, Vietnam
This shift means that old areas like Thu Duc City or District 1 will no longer exist in the same manner. Thu Duc will be divided into several smaller new units.

Understanding the New Structure
The government believes these changes will foster a better alignment of resources with local needs. Increased efficiency and a clearer administrative structure are expected outcomes.
Address Updates
With the planned restructuring, address formats will evolve. Customers and businesses must adjust to these changes patiently.

Update Your Records: Ensure that all documentation reflects the new address formats as they become effective.
