📋 Tender Overview
Vietnam has achieved many important results in research, development and commercial deployment of 5G technology, and is proactively preparing resources to access the next generation of mobile technology - 6G. Download With accumulated experience in the process of mastering 4G and 5G technology, Vietnam expects to continue shortening the time to master and deploy 6G5G technology to cover about 91.9% of the population. According to the Department of Telecommunications (Ministry of Science and Technology), as of early 2026, telecommunications businesses have deployed more than 40,000 5G transceiver stations (BTS), bringing coverage to about 91.9% of the population. Vietnam is not a leading country in terms of 5G deployment time, but Vietnams 5G deployment speed is among the fastest in the world... Normally, to reach coverage of over 80% of the population, many countries, including those with a high level of development, need about 2-3 years. This result shows Vietnams technological level in mastering, deploying and optimizing the network. network, said Mr. Nguyen Anh Cuong, Deputy Director of the Department of Telecommunications. Not only focusing on infrastructure deployment, Vietnam also gradually masters some core technologies of the 5G network. Domestic enterprises have successfully researched and produced 5G equipment according to international standards and gradually commercialized them. In addition, Vietnamese telecommunications enterprises have mastered the production of 5G equipment according to international standards. Of the more than 40,000 5G stations being deployed, there are about 2,500 stations manufactured in Vietnam, accounting for over 6%. Vietnamese telecommunications businesses are aiming to continue to increase the proportion of 5G devices manufactured in Vietnam on the network. Regarding 6G technology, currently the world is researching 6G technology. 6G standards are also being researched and developed by 3GPP. Download Mr. Nguyen Anh Cuong, Deputy Director of the Department of Telecommunications - Photo: Chinhphu.vn/TG Mr. Nguyen Anh Cuong said that for telecommunications technologies, research and development is unique, because this is not a story of individual research in each country to create an independent technology. This process requires coordination, consensus and unity between countries and large telecommunications corporations and enterprises in the world, to ensure that the network can operate synchronously and seamlessly on a global scale. Therefore, research and standardization of telecommunications technology are carried out through international organizations such as the International Telecommunications Union (ITU) and standardization organizations such as 3GPP. To grasp the trend of technology development in the world, prepare human resources. people and infrastructure, while continuing to improve institutions to meet the needs of society, the Ministry of Science and Technology has established a 6G Steering Committee. The 6G Steering Committee has the participation of management agencies in the field of telecommunications, frequencies, businesses and universities. This approach aims to create coordination between management agencies, research units, training facilities and businesses in the process of researching 6G technology. According to the Department of Telecommunications, the establishment of the 6G Steering Committee will help businesses and universities have access to 6G technology right from the moment the standards begin to be formed. This is also an opportunity for domestic businesses and universities to participate in research and development of 6G standards, and grasp the technology early. and be more proactive in deploying 6G technology suitable to Vietnams conditions. Overall assessment of the ability to master 6G technology, Mr. Nguyen Anh Cuong said that previously, to master 4G technology, Vietnam needed a significant amount of time from when the technology was standardized to being able to produce and master 4G devices. In 5G, with the experience accumulated from the process of researching and mastering 4G, this time period has been increased. shortened to nearly 2 years. With the experience accumulated in the process of mastering 4G and 5G technology, Vietnam expects to continue to shorten the time to master and deploy 6G technology. Vietnam will continue to make efforts to master 6G technology as soon as possible, ready for the process of deploying the new generation of networks when this technology is put into operation in Vietnam. In Decision No. 21/2026/QD-TTg of the Prime Minister, next generation mobile network technology was included in 10 strategic technology groups. Previously, in Resolution 57-NQ/TW of the Politburo on breakthrough development of science, technology, innovation and digital transformation, the country set an important goal of nationwide 5G coverage by 2030 and gradually mastered a number of strategic and digital technologies, including 5G and 6G mobile information.
