In 2025, Tay Ninh’s economy maintained strong growth momentum, with gross regional domestic product (GRDP) expanding by 9.52%, ranking eighth among 34 provinces and cities nationwide.
Localities such as Quang Ninh, Hai Phong, Ninh Binh, Phu Tho and Bac Ninh posted growth rates of between 10.27% and 11.89%, far exceeding the national average.

Hanoi ranked 16th nationwide with GRDP growth of 8.16%, while HCM City placed 21st at 7.53%. Despite falling outside the top 10, these two major cities, together with Hai Phong, Dong Nai and Bac Ninh, continued to act as core pillars of the national economy, making the largest contributions to overall GDP growth. As the five largest local economies, they accounted for 55.4% of national growth in 2025.
The surge in budget collection stemmed from a stable macroeconomic foundation and positive growth momentum.
The city’s total GRDP value for 2025 is estimated at 2.74 quadrillion VND (103.93 billion USD), accounting for 23.5% of national GDP. GRDP per capita is projected to reach 8,066 USD. Foreign direct investment inflows are expected to total 8.16 billion USD, representing a 21.1% increase year-on-year.
With a combined seaport capacity expected to reach 32.7 million TEUs annually once projects are completed, HCM City could rival Singapore’s 37 million TEU capacity and other major regional ports, cementing its indispensable role in global value chains, especially in IT outsourcing, cross-border financial services, logistics, and supply chain management.
Under the congress's resolution, the city aims for per capita GRDP of approximately 14,000–15,000 USD; total social investment capital over five years to reach 35–40% of GRDP; and the digital economy to account for 30–40% of GRDP.
Ninh Binh looks to become a centrally-run city by 2030, with modern industry, high-quality tourism services, and green urban development linked to heritage; and one of the leading localities nationwide in terms of growth rate and per capita income.
From 2026 to 2030, Bac Ninh aims for an annual gross regional domestic product (GRDP) growth of 11–12%, per capita GRDP of 8,700–9,200 USD, and an annual labour productivity growth of 10%.
Da Nang's GRDP is projected to grow at an average of 11% per year during 2026–2030, with per capita GRDP reaching 8,500 USD. State budget revenue is expected to rise by at least 10% annually; the private sector is projected to grow 11.5–12% per year; and the digital economy is anticipated to account for 35–40% of GRDP.
The province has set its 2025 economic growth (GRDP) target at 9–9.5%, striving to exceed 10%.
The newly merged HCM City, comprising the former city and the provinces of Binh Duong and Ba Ria-Vung Tau, posted the estimated GRDP growth of 6.56% (including crude oil) and 7.49% (excluding crude oil) in the first half of 2025.
70 years after its liberation, Hai Phong has undergone a strong transformation, emerging as one of Vietnam’s top five localities in terms of economic scale, with outstanding achievements across multiple sectors.
The 7.51% growth in Q1 was an encouraging sign, but this figure also indicates numerous challenges to the city's efforts to achieve its annual growth target of 8.5–10%.
Secretary of the Quang Ninh Party Committee Vu Dai Thang emphasised that achieving this target would require Quang Ninh’s economy to reach approximately 395 trillion VND (15.4 billion USD) in 2025.
Party General Secretary To Lam on January 16 urged the northern province of Nam Dinh to try its best, to achieve a double-digit GRDP growth rate this year.
The northern port city of Hai Phong achieved a gross regional domestic product (GRDP) growth rate of over 11% last year, ranking third nationwide in terms of economic development.
