Vietnam MOF wants to add two casinos to locals pilot program

Vietnam’s ministry of finance has proposed the expansion of its locals-permitted casino pilot program by adding two casinos to the trial list, along with an extension of the program for another two years.

The original end date of the pilot program is 2022, equating to a three year program, however, the Ministry of Finance since June last year has been advocating for extending the program until 2024, which would give the government more time to evaluate the pilot program.

Currently, two casinos are permitted to allow local entry, including the Corona Resort on Phu Quoc Island in the South and a yet to be opened resort in Van Don in the North.
