Keyword: "level-2 e-ID accounts"

Vietnam began issuing level-2 electronic identification (e-ID) accounts for foreign residents in the country on July 1, as part of the national digital transformation agenda, and governance modernisation efforts.

Foreigners holding valid temporary or permanent residence permits in Vietnam are eligible to obtain the digital ID, making it easier for them to complete online administrative procedures while reducing processing time, paperwork and direct contact requirements.
