Recently, during a working session with the Ministry of Culture, Sports, and Tourism, Prime Minister Le Minh Hung directed relevant agencies to urgently build a Government Resolution on the development of Viet Nam’s cultural industries and to study to build a draft Law on Cultural Industries for submission to competent authorities.
The Politburo’s Resolution No. 80-NQ/TW dated January 7, 2026, on the development of the Vietnamese culture, also emphasises the task of focusing on building laws on artistic activities, literature, copyright, and cultural industries in a creative manner that unlocks resources for cultural development.
Cultural industries encompass a wide range of creative sectors and involve numerous specialised laws, including those related to intellectual property, tourism, cultural heritage, advertising, taxation, and e-commerce. Therefore, the drafting of a Law on Cultural Industries must ensure consistency and compatibility with the existing legal system, avoiding overlaps as well as overly general provisions that would be difficult to implement in practice.
