Friday, April 17,2026
AsemconnectVietnam - The program to expand into international markets in the 2026-2030 period aims to provide comprehensive and in-depth support to at least 100 businesses to invest abroad, with 30% of them investing through mergers and acquisitions (M&A).
Accordingly, Deputy Prime Minister Nguyen Chi Dung recently signed Decision No. 626/QD-TTg approving the program to expand into international markets in the 2026-2030 period.
Notably, the program sets the overall goal for Vietnam's private sector to increase its presence abroad in a comprehensive, effective, and sustainable manner, both in scale and quality, through international investment and business activities and deeper integration into regional and global supply chains and value chains.
The specific targets by 2030 include: training at least 10,000 businesses on global investment and business operations; consulting and developing plans for international market expansion for 1,000 businesses; and providing comprehensive support to 100 businesses for overseas investment, with 30% of these businesses investing through mergers and acquisitions (M&A).
At least 100 businesses will receive comprehensive support from research, design, production, distribution, and international branding to participate in regional and global value chains, including at least 20 large businesses in key strategic sectors participating in regional and global supply and value chains.
At least 100 businesses will receive comprehensive and in-depth support to operate effectively on cross-border e-commerce platforms in Vietnam and internationally, with at least 10 businesses achieving online export revenue exceeding US$10 million.
To achieve these goals, the program sets out the following five tasks and solutions:
- Establishing a synchronized, transparent, and favorable institutional framework to encourage, support, and minimize risks for businesses investing and operating in foreign markets.
- Building a foundation of information, awareness, and capacity to expand into foreign markets.
- Encouraging and facilitating businesses to invest abroad, especially through M&A, to access global resources, expand economic growth opportunities, and strengthen Vietnam's position in the international arena.
- Promoting deeper business participation in global supply chains and value chains to enhance added value in exports and strengthen the strategic independence and autonomy of the economy and sustainable development.
- Facilitating businesses to boost cross-border digital trade activities to promote growth based on technology, data, innovation, and sustainability.
