Total registered foreign direct investment (FDI) in Ho Chi Minh City in 2025 is estimated at nearly 8.37 billion USD, up 24.2% from 2024, reflecting the continued appeal of the southern metropolis to foreign investors.

Viet Nam will continue to facilitate foreign investment and business activities, including those by US enterprises, in line with laws and the country’s evolving development needs, said Tran Luu Quang, Chairman of the Party Central Committee’s Commission for Policies and Strategies.

Viet Nam and Spain are set to elevate their economic partnership following Deputy Prime Minister Ho Duc Phoc’s working trip on July 3 to Barcelona, where he engaged with regional leaders and business executives to accelerate cooperation across green energy, logistics and sustainable finance.
