Storing and Transporting Hazardous Chemicals in Vietnam: Safety Conditions and Permits: the issue
Errors here are rarely loud at first, but they accumulate into inspection, penalty and dispute exposure later. This article analyses ‘Storing and Transporting Hazardous Chemicals in Vietnam’ under the law in force on 20 October 2026, moving from the governing provisions to a concrete sequence of action for the enterprise.
The core legal basis
Chemical management in Vietnam has just changed framework: the Chemicals Law 69/2025/QH15 (effective 1 January 2026) replaced the Chemicals Law 06/2007/QH12, together with the 2026 guiding decrees (Decrees 24/2026, 25/2026 and 26/2026/ND-CP) — a business still citing the 2007 law or the old conditions for chemical storage, transport or incident response is relying on instruments that are no longer in force as at 20 October 2026. The Chemicals Law 69/2025/QH15 reorganises the conditions for producing, trading, storing and transporting hazardous chemicals around controlled-chemical lists, with safety data sheets and chemical declaration through the national database system; for transport, vehicles and drivers must additionally meet dangerous-goods transport conditions — enterprises should re-audit every licence and warehouse condition granted under the former 2007 framework.
