Vietnam’s carbon market faces a reality check

Vietnam’s carbon market development faces significant structural challenges despite strong policy ambitions. While the government aims to establish an emissions trading system and attract international investment, gaps in regulatory frameworks, MRV capacity, and institutional experience remain key barriers. Many domestic companies are also unprepared to participate effectively in carbon markets. These limitations raise concerns about the credibility and scalability of carbon credits, particularly in the context of Article 6. The case highlights a broader trend across emerging markets, where high mitigation potential is often constrained by governance and implementation capacity.
