AI integration in Vietnam legal sector

Overview

The integration of artificial intelligence into the Vietnamese legal sector has progressed from large-scale government infrastructure deployments to broader professional applications.

At the 2026 ASEAN Law Forum in Hanoi, FPT IS introduced an AI-powered Justice ecosystem intended to support law-making and enforcement. This ecosystem includes the National Law Portal and a National Legal Database containing over 170,000 documents, alongside specialized tools for civil judgment enforcement and legal drafting.

In Ho Chi Minh City, the technology is increasingly used by legal professionals to optimize research, contract drafting, and administrative automation. While these tools enhance efficiency, experts caution that AI lacks the “conscience, empathy, flexible thinking, and professional responsibility” necessary for complex human rights cases. Concerns have also been raised regarding data security and AI “hallucinations,” where the technology may produce inaccurate or non-existent legal citations.
