Where this applies
This record is scoped to Vietnam. Scope is part of the claim: a rule that binds one part of a country does not bind the whole of it, and this library states the scope its sources state.
Instrument
Circular 28/2012/TT-BKHCN (Ministry of Science and Technology)
Who it binds
Businesses whose products fall within the scope of a specific QCVN (national technical regulation)
What it requires
Vietnam distinguishes hợp chuẩn (voluntary standard conformity) from hợp quy (mandatory regulation conformity, tied to a specific QCVN). Circular 28/2012 sets out 8 conformity-assessment methods and marking rules for hợp quy. Mandatoriness always ties to a specific QCVN — there is no blanket "product certification is mandatory in Vietnam" rule.
