Vietnam’s Ministry of Science and Technology has issued Circular 29/2025/TT-BKHCN, updating management rules for ICT and telecommunications products.

The regulation takes full effect on 31 December 2025, replacing Circular 02/2024/TT-BTTTT, and aims to simplify conformity procedures while aligning with international testing practices.
Main changes include allowing normal-condition testing for most ICT products from 1 July 2025, except for Wi-Fi transceivers, which must still undergo severe-condition testing.

The scope of regulated products is expanded to include industrial computers, and a phased rollout of the new SAR standard (QCVN 134:2024/BTTTT) begins in 2026 for mobile/5G devices and in 2027 for laptops, tablets, and DECT phones.

The circular also introduces mandatory compliance for Wi-Fi 6E and Wi-Fi 7 devices operating in the 6 GHz band and removes previous import quantity exemptions, requiring full compliance for all imported ICT and telecom products regardless of volume.
