The Government Office has issued Notice No. 171/TB-VPCP dated April 11, 2025, summarizing the outcomes of the first meeting of the Government's Steering Committee for Science, Technology, Innovation Development, Digital Transformation, and Project 06.
According to the notice, the Government mandates the implementation of biometric technology using the VneID platform at all airports, seaports, and border gates nationwide, with completion set for the second quarter of 2025.
Key tasks outlined by the Prime Minister, who also heads the Steering Committee, include completing the digitization of civil status data, land data, and other relevant datasets; reusing these datasets; and simplifying administrative procedures. These tasks are to be finalized by the second quarter of 2025.
