Vietnam’s State Securities Commission has opened applications for the fourth securities practitioner licensing examination of 2026, with submissions accepted until November 30, 2026. The examination is expected to take place in Hanoi. Applications can be submitted online, in person or by post, and the examination fee is VND 1 million per candidate for each type of certificate sought.
Candidates must answer at least 60% of questions correctly in each of the examination’s two sections. Those retaking one section must meet the same threshold for that section. Computer-based multiple-choice examinations are not subject to a review of marking.
The Form No. 1 criminal record certificate must be submitted no later than 20 days after examination results are published on the commission’s website. Candidates who miss that deadline must retake the examination. The examination council encourages applicants to include the certificate with their initial application to avoid missing the subsequent submission deadline.
