What do Intermediary Service Providers need to do to comply with the requirements in Vietnam

With over 72 million internet users, ranked 13th in the world, Vietnam is an important market for almost all major online platforms. Yet rampant online copyright infringement has exposed tensions between online platforms and right holders and put online platforms at regular risk of being held liable for copyright infringement. "Liabilities of Intermediary Services Providers (ISPs)" is therefore among the most notable additions in the amended IP Law, which came into effect on 1 January 2023. After a long wait, Decree 17/2023/ND-CP ("Decree 17") was finally issued on 26 April 2023, providing the necessary guidance for ISPs to meet the requirements set out in the IP Law and protect themselves from copyright infringement claims.

New Amendments To Vietnam’s Customs Law Will Aid IP Enforcement

Vietnam's National Assembly has passed sweeping amendments to the country's Customs Law, fundamentally transforming how intellectual property rights are enforced at the border. The reforms extend customs enforcement to goods in transit, introduce ex officio suspension powers, and establish new monitoring frameworks for e-commerce shipments. These changes come in direct response to international pressure and represent Vietnam's most significant upgrade to border IP protection in years.
