Course Information

In 2025, Vietnam introduced a sweeping overhaul of its chemical regulatory system. The government enacted a new chemical law together with multiple implementing decrees, circulars, and regulatory standards, fundamentally changing how chemicals and products containing chemicals must be managed in the country.

This course provides companies with a clear roadmap for navigating Vietnam’s evolving compliance framework and understanding the practical implications of the new rules.
