Foreign: Vietnam attracted over US$38 billion in registered foreign investment in the first seven months of 2026, up 58 percent year-on-year, as the country continued to strengthen its attractiveness as a destination for global manufacturing and high-tech investments.
According to Vietnam News Agency published on August 6, 2026, the increase came amid efforts to implement the Politburo’s Decision No. 10-NQ/TW on promoting the development of the foreign-invested economy.
Data released by the National Statistics Office (NSO) under the Ministry of Finance showed that total registered foreign investment, including new registered capital, adjusted capital and capital contributions through share purchases, reached over US$38 billion as of July 31.
Investment spending also recorded strong growth, estimated at $15.2 billion from January to July, up 11.8 percent from a year earlier and the highest level of spending in seven months in the past five years.
