Vietcombank staff deployed biometric verification for Amata Long Thanh Co., Ltd in Thailand.

In accordance with Article 17 of Circular No. 17/2024/TT-NHNN, issued by the State Bank of Vietnam (SBV) and effective from July 1, 2025, institutional clients will be required to update biometric data for their legal representatives to access withdrawals and perform electronic payment transactions on their accounts. To ensure seamless compliance and uninterrupted access to digital banking services, Vietcombank has undertaken robust outreach efforts, guiding institutional clients to update their biometric data through user-friendly channels such as Digibank application and VCB Tablet devices, available at Vietcombank’s transaction points nationwide.

Despite these efforts, many Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) clients encounter challenges in meeting these requirements, primarily due to the absence of their legal representatives in Vietnam. Leveraging its decades of experience and cutting-edge technological infrastructure, Vietcombank has taken the lead in deploying biometric data collection for foreign FDI business owners residing in key markets and territories such as China, South Korea, Taiwan, Singapore, and Thailand. This initiative, marked by professionalism and a steadfast commitment to customer service, has garnered widespread acclaim from FDI partners.

As Vietnam’s leading financial institution serving FDI enterprises, Vietcombank integrates cutting-edge technology with a steadfast commitment to security, enabling swift, secure and convenient online transactions. By implementing biometric authentication for legal representatives, Vietcombank empowers clients to safeguard against identity fraud, unauthorized account access, and illicit activities such as money laundering and financial scams, thereby fostering trust and reliability.Vietcombank staff deployed biometric verification for Yuhan JS Vina Co., Ltd in Korea.
