New developments of the amended Law on Intellectual Property 2025
In recent years, both globally and in Viet Nam, there has been a sharp increase in non-traditional intellectual property assets, giving rise to the need to protect such assets and to expand the concept of intellectual property (IP) as well as protection mechanisms for high-value digital assets such as algorithms, artificial intelligence (AI) software, business models, and user interface designs. In response to this reality, on December 10, 2025, the National Assembly promulgated the Law amending and supplementing a number of articles of the Law on Intellectual Propertywhich takes effect from April 1, 2026.
