More than 30 years of fruitful bilateral ties

Vietnam and the UAE celebrated the 30th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic ties in 2023 (August 1, 1993 - August 1, 2023)

Over the past 30 years, the friendship and cooperation between Vietnam and the UAE have increasingly developed in politics, diplomacy, trade, investment, labour and tourism. Political trust and mutual understanding between the two countries are constantly being strengthened. Economic cooperation is always an important pillar. The UAE is Vietnam's largest trade partner in the Middle East-North Africa region and also Vietnam's 7th largest export market.

Many areas of cooperation between Vietnam and the UAE have bright prospects, such as trade and investment, especially after the two countries started negotiations on the Vietnam-UAE Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (CEPA). The UAE side determined that CEPA will be one of three priority pillars from now until 2030 and the following period. The signed CEPA will be the largest, most comprehensive agreement of great significance and an important milestone in the cooperative relationship between Vietnam and the UAE, opening a new phase in joint strategic cooperation on trade and investment between the two countries.
