How identity verification works in Vietnam.
- Fraud landscape
- Three pressures shape Vietnamese identity fraud: deepfake injection against the SBV-mandated eKYC flows on mobile banking and securities apps under Circular 17/2024/TT-NHNN, forgery of legacy CMND (9- and 12-digit) cards still in circulation during the CCCD transition, and mule-account farming against NAPAS-connected wallets. Didit scores 200+ real-time fraud signals on every session — face morph, replay, injection, document tampering, device intelligence, IP geolocation.
- Compliance frameworks
- AML Law 2022 (Law No. 14/2022/QH15)
- Personal Data Protection Decree 13/2023/ND-CP
- SBV Circular 17/2024/TT-NHNN (Electronic KYC)
- Law on Identification 2023 (Law No. 26/2023/QH15)
- Securities Law 54/2019/QH14
- FATF 40 recommendations

Validate inputs against global identity infrastructure.
Vietnam does not currently expose a public consumer-grade identity-registry API to cross-border KYC vendors — the MPS CCCD chip-read and VNeID credential flow are controlled under the 2023 Law on Identification and access is restricted to domestically licensed entities.
- The hosted flow already covers the SBV Circular 17/2024/TT-NHNN eKYC baseline: CCCD OCR + chip read, VNeID digital-credential capture, Active Liveness, Face Match 1:1, and AML screening against Vietnamese regulatory watchlists.
- Didit ships Database Validation for 40+ countries; country-specific government-source services for Vietnam are on the roadmap — contact the team if you need a custom SBV-source contract for the Circular 17/2024/TT-NHNN source-verification requirement.
