On October 24, the Department of Traffic Police under the Ministry of Public Security announced that a nationwide initiative is underway to review and standardize data for all vehicles and driving licenses.

The goal is to integrate and synchronize this information with the National Population Database, ensuring that each citizen and each registered vehicle has a unique identification code.

A representative from the Department of Traffic Police emphasized that the campaign also aims to create “accurate - complete - clean” data. This will help prevent fraud and forged information while safeguarding the legal rights of citizens in vehicle registration, title transfer, traffic violation handling, and online public services.

Citizens are encouraged to verify and cross-check their vehicle and driving license data using the VNeID or VNeTraffic mobile applications, or through the Ministry of Public Security's online service portal. Prompt updates can help avoid administrative violations or legal liabilities.

To support the data standardization process, traffic police are recommending stricter management practices, especially for motorbikes that have changed ownership multiple times. These steps aim to reinforce legal responsibility for vehicle owners.

By December 31, all vehicle data is expected to meet the standard of being accurate, complete, and clean. The Department of Traffic Police has set a goal to collaborate with local police forces nationwide through late 2025 and early 2026 to review and verify vehicle data still present in the system. Vehicles no longer in circulation will be removed from the database.

After this data standardization process, vehicles that are still operational will be uniquely identified. This will assist with future traffic management, including detecting and addressing violations via surveillance cameras.
