9 Best Vietnam Proxies (2026)

Vietnam is one of the fastest-growing online markets in Southeast Asia, and one of the hardest to see from outside. Prices, vouchers and shipping fees on Shopee and TikTok Shop depend on a Vietnamese location; Google returns different results on google.com.vn than from Singapore or the US; and the apps most Vietnamese people use every day — Zalo, Facebook, TikTok — treat foreign IPs very differently from local ones. If you monitor prices, track Vietnamese search rankings, verify ads, test an app or manage accounts for the Vietnamese market, you need an IP address that Vietnamese websites believe is local.

That's harder than it sounds. Vietnamese residential pools are much smaller than those in the US or Europe, static residential IPs are scarce, and many providers that list "Vietnam" on their location page sell little more than a few datacenter addresses. We compared 15 providers on what they actually publish for Vietnam — the size of their Vietnamese pool, city, province and carrier targeting, which proxy types they sell with Vietnamese IPs, and what it costs — and picked the 9 that cover the most needs.

Quick picks

• Best overall: Decodo — 1.47M Vietnamese residential IPs, city, ZIP and ASN targeting, 24-hour sticky sessions, a free trial and a clear refund policy.
• Best for Vietnamese mobile carriers: ProxyEmpire — all four Vietnamese mobile networks, 103 targetable locations and a $1.97 trial.
• Best for province and ISP targeting: SOAX — 846,000 Vietnamese residential and mobile IPs with targeting by province, city and named Vietnamese operator.
• Best for enterprise scale: Oxylabs — the largest Vietnamese pool claimed, plus Vietnamese mobile and dedicated datacenter IPs.
• Best for every proxy type: Bright Data — residential, mobile, ISP and datacenter IPs in Vietnam with carrier and ASN targeting.
• Best budget option: DataImpulse — $1/GB pay-as-you-go Vietnamese residential traffic that never expires.

Comparison table

Vietnamese IP counts are each provider's own claim from its Vietnam page in October 2026. Providers count differently — some count unique IPs seen over a month, some count IPs online at a point in time, some combine proxy types — so the numbers aren't directly comparable. Prices change often; check the provider's pricing page before you buy.

The Vietnamese proxy landscape

A little background on how Vietnamese internet access works makes it much easier to choose the right proxy type and to tell whether the IP you've been given looks believable.

Three state-linked groups dominate mobile. Vietnam's mobile market is concentrated in Viettel (owned by the Ministry of National Defence), VNPT, which runs the VinaPhone brand, and MobiFone. TeleGeography put the three at 95.8% of mobile subscriptions in mid-2024, with Viettel alone holding well over half. Vietnamobile is the fourth network operator, and a handful of virtual operators (such as iTel and Wintel) ride on the larger networks. A Vietnamese mobile proxy that looks natural will almost always exit through one of these four.

Home broadband is fibre and run by a few ISPs. Fixed internet is dominated by VNPT, Viettel and FPT Telecom, with smaller players such as CMC Telecom, SCTV (the Saigontourist cable operator) and NetNam. They announce their customers' addresses from a small number of autonomous systems: Viettel on AS7552, VNPT on AS45899 and FPT Telecom on AS18403. A residential Vietnamese IP that local sites trust will usually belong to one of these networks.

5G is new but spreading fast. Viettel launched Vietnam's first commercial 5G network on 15 October 2024, VinaPhone followed on 20 December 2024, and MobiFone launched in 2025. Mobile operators place many subscribers behind shared IPv4 addresses (carrier-grade NAT), so a single Vietnamese mobile IP can be in use by many real people at once — which is why Vietnamese platforms are reluctant to block mobile IPs, and why mobile proxies carry the highest trust for account work.

IPv6 is mainstream. Vietnam is one of Asia's higher IPv6 adopters, with national figures putting adoption at roughly two-thirds of users by the end of 2025. Most proxy products still give you an IPv4 exit, which is normal, but it means you should check that your own IPv6 address doesn't leak around the proxy (see the testing section below).

International connectivity is fragile. Vietnam connects to the rest of the world through six undersea cable systems — AAG, IA, AAE-1, APG, ADC and SJC2 — and they have repeatedly failed at the same time. All five cables then in service were affected in 2023, three were down in 2024, APG broke in February 2025 and wasn't fully repaired until late April, and in 2026 DatacenterDynamics reported faults on four cables (SJC2, AAE-1, AAG and IA) affecting around 30% of the country's international traffic. During these outages, latency between a scraper running in Europe or the US and a Vietnamese exit node can rise sharply. Running your client from a nearby region such as Singapore or Hong Kong helps.

The province map changed in 2025. On 1 July 2025 Vietnam merged its 63 provinces and centrally run cities into 34 and abolished the district level. Geolocation databases and proxy providers haven't all caught up: ProxyEmpire explicitly uses the pre-2025 province names, and SOAX's region list mixes old province names in different spellings. When you target a region, use the name the provider's documentation uses, and verify the result with an IP lookup.

Local resellers need care. Vietnam has a large market of cheap "local" proxy sellers, often advertised in Facebook groups and on Telegram, aimed at affiliate marketing and multi-account work. Many don't publish a legal entity, an IP-sourcing policy or terms of service. An IP of unknown origin may come from compromised devices, and accounts created through it can be linked to other abusers of the same address. The providers below all publish who operates them and how they source IPs.

1. Decodo — Best overall

Decodo, the Lithuanian provider formerly known as Smartproxy, is the most balanced choice for Vietnam. Its Vietnam page claims 1,468,923 Vietnamese IPs from real mobile and desktop devices, which makes it one of the largest Vietnamese residential pools that publishes a country-specific number. Residential traffic can be targeted by city — the page names Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon) and Hanoi — as well as by ZIP code and ASN, so you can narrow requests down to a specific Vietnamese operator such as Viettel or FPT Telecom when a site treats them differently.

Two things make Decodo particularly practical for Vietnamese work. First, custom sticky sessions can last up to 24 hours, long enough to keep a Shopee or TikTok Shop session on a single Vietnamese IP for a full working day. Second, pricing is the same as for any other country: pay-as-you-go costs $4/GB, monthly plans fall from $3.75/GB (3 GB) to $2.75/GB (100 GB) and $2.50/GB (250 GB), and enterprise volume reaches $2/GB at 1 TB.

Decodo's Vietnam page covers residential proxies only; it doesn't offer Vietnamese mobile, ISP or datacenter IPs there, and it doesn't name which Vietnamese carriers are in its pool. New users get a free trial, and first purchases come with a 14-day money-back guarantee if you haven't used the free trial or more than 20% of your traffic.

2. ProxyEmpire — Best for Vietnamese mobile carriers

ProxyEmpire, operated from Bulgaria, publishes the most Vietnam-specific detail of any provider we checked. Its Vietnam page lists 103 targetable locations — 74 towns and cities plus 29 urban districts, rural districts and wards — across all 63 provinces under their pre-2025 names, from Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, Hai Phong, Da Nang and Can Tho down to Phu Quoc, Dien Bien Phu and Ca Mau. It also names the networks behind its Vietnamese IPs: home broadband on VNPT, Viettel, FPT Telecom, SCTV and NetNam, and mobile IPs on all four Vietnamese mobile networks — Viettel, VinaPhone, MobiFone and Vietnamobile.

That carrier coverage is what sets it apart. If you run Zalo, Facebook or TikTok accounts for the Vietnamese market, or need to verify what a Viettel or MobiFone subscriber sees in an app or mobile ad, you can target that network directly on rotating mobile traffic, which starts from $2/GB at volume.

In Vietnam, ProxyEmpire sells rotating residential, rotating mobile, rotating datacenter and an unlimited-bandwidth residential plan (from $200 for a one-day pass, $1,500 a month, with 20,500+ daily Vietnamese IPs). It states that it doesn't offer static residential proxies in Vietnam. Rotating residential costs $3.50 for 1 GB pay-as-you-go, $20 for 7 GB on the smallest monthly plan and $1,500 for 1 TB ($1.50/GB), with custom plans from $0.75/GB at 5 TB and unused traffic rolling over. Rotating datacenter traffic starts at $0.35/GB. A $1.97 trial covers residential and mobile traffic; the terms of service say all sales are final.

3. SOAX — Best for province and ISP targeting

SOAX claims 846,000 Vietnamese residential and mobile IPs and publishes long lists of the regions, cities and networks you can target. Its region list covers around 50 provinces and cities, including Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, Haiphong, Da Nang, Can Tho, Dong Nai, Binh Duong, Bac Ninh and Khanh Hoa, and its city list adds places such as Bien Hoa, Thuan An, Vung Tau, Nha Trang, Da Lat, Hue, Vinh and Pleiku. Some regions appear twice under different spellings of the same old province name, a side effect of geolocation data that predates the 2025 merger.

Its ISP list includes the networks that matter — Viettel Group, VNPT, FPT Telecom, MobiFone and Vietnamobile, plus SCTV and Saigon Postel — but also entries such as Cloudflare WARP, universities and small hosting companies. A strict anti-bot system may treat those as less "residential" than a Viettel or FPT home connection, so if you target by ISP, stick to the main consumer operators.

SOAX prices traffic by credit with country "geo tiers", and residential and mobile traffic share the same rate. Its Vietnam page doesn't say which tier Vietnam falls into; on Tier 1 countries, rates run from $5/GB in the no-fee Sandbox to $3/GB on the $200 Builder plan, $1.50/GB on the $1,500 Scale plan and from $0.85/GB on Enterprise, and lower tiers are cheaper. The Vietnam page advertises a 3-day, 400 MB trial for $1.99. Note that the datacenter proxies SOAX mentions alongside Vietnam are US datacenter IPs, not Vietnamese ones. Mobile and residential traffic support UDP and QUIC as well as HTTP(S) and SOCKS5.

4. Oxylabs — Best for enterprise scale

Oxylabs, one of the largest Lithuanian providers, claims the biggest Vietnamese presence of anyone we checked: 6,448,186 Vietnamese IPs across its products, of which "more than three million" are in the residential pool. Residential traffic supports country, state, city, ZIP and ASN targeting, and the same pool is available over SOCKS5.

Oxylabs is one of the few providers that sells Vietnamese mobile proxies (5G, 4G, 3G and LTE) with country, state, city and ASN targeting, and dedicated Vietnamese datacenter IPs with city- or state-level selection. Its datacenter location table is unusually specific and shows how concentrated Vietnamese datacenter supply is: 1,151 IPs in Hanoi and 78 in Binh Thanh (Ho Chi Minh City), all with HTTP and SOCKS5, IPv4 and IPv6, and unlimited bandwidth.

Pricing on its Vietnam page starts at $8/GB for residential, $9/GB for mobile and $8.25 a month for dedicated datacenter proxies. Oxylabs' main pricing page showed lower residential rates in October 2026 — $6/GB on the smallest plan, falling to $2.50/GB on large monthly commitments — so check the current price at checkout. For teams that need millions of Vietnamese requests a month, account management and SLAs, it's a safe choice; for a few gigabytes, cheaper providers on this list will do.

5. Bright Data — Best for every proxy type

Bright Data runs the largest residential network overall (400M+ monthly IPs in 195 countries), and it is the only provider we checked that lists all four proxy types with Vietnamese IPs: residential, mobile, ISP and datacenter. Its Vietnam figures are inconsistent, though: the page title advertises 2,651,672 Vietnamese IPs, while the body shows 1,029,909. Treat both as snapshots rather than a guaranteed pool size.

Where Bright Data stands out is targeting and paperwork. Vietnamese traffic can be targeted by city, state, ZIP code, carrier and ASN, which is useful for ad verification on a specific mobile network. It holds ISO 27001, SOC 2, SOC 3 and CSA STAR certifications and requires KYC before residential access — the kind of documentation an enterprise data or compliance team may ask for before approving a vendor.

Prices are the highest on this list. Residential pay-as-you-go has a list price of $8/GB, falling to $5/GB on the $1,999/month plan; in October 2026 its Vietnam page advertised 50% off Vietnamese residential traffic for three months with a coupon, and a first-deposit match of up to $500. ISP proxies start at $1.30 per IP and datacenter IPs at $0.90. Mobile proxies have no public price. A free trial is available for residential proxies.

6. IPRoyal — Best for city coverage and irregular usage

IPRoyal claims 460,172 Vietnamese IPs and publishes one of the longest Vietnamese city lists we found: 64 cities and towns, from Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, Haiphong, Can Tho and Bien Hoa to Hoi An, Phu Quoc, Cao Bang and Lang Son. That breadth is useful for checking local delivery coverage or regional prices outside the two big metros. Its own figures don't always add up, though — a separate Hanoi page claims 132,345 IPs for the capital alone — so treat the numbers as rough.

The Vietnam page lists pricing for all four proxy types: rotating residential from $1.75/GB (the 10 TB rate; 1 GB costs $7.35), ISP from $2.40 per proxy, datacenter from $1.39 per proxy (per month on 90-day terms) and dedicated mobile proxies from $10.11 per day, with 5G, 4G and 3G support. The page doesn't name the Vietnamese carriers behind its mobile proxies, and IPRoyal's ISP and datacenter products are sold from a fixed list of countries, so check in the dashboard that Vietnamese ISP or datacenter IPs are actually in stock before relying on them.

IPRoyal's strongest feature for occasional users is that residential traffic never expires: you can buy a block and use it over months. Sticky residential sessions can last up to 7 days. Refunds are tight — within 24 hours and only if you've used 100 MB or less.

7. DataImpulse — Best budget option

DataImpulse has the lowest pay-as-you-go price on this list for Vietnamese residential traffic: $1/GB, falling to $0.80/GB at 1 TB, and traffic never expires. A $5 introductory plan for new users (5 GB) is a cheap way to test Vietnamese IPs on your target sites.

It is also unusually transparent about how it counts its pool. Its Vietnam page reports 665,003 unique Vietnamese IPs over the last 30 days, 93,313 over the last 24 hours and a real-time active pool of 46,939 — a useful reminder that the Vietnamese IPs available to you at any moment are a fraction of the headline monthly figure. Sessions can rotate per request or stay sticky for up to 120 minutes, over HTTP(S) or SOCKS5.

The catch is targeting. Country-level targeting is included, but state, city, ZIP and ASN targeting cost extra, so if you need Ho Chi Minh City or a specific operator, the effective price rises. DataImpulse states that it doesn't offer static residential IPs in Vietnam; mobile, premium residential and datacenter pools are listed as enterprise options on request. For price monitoring on Shopee or Lazada, where "an IP in Vietnam" is usually enough, it's very cost-effective.

8. Rayobyte — Best for consent-based sourcing

Rayobyte, a US provider founded in 2015, sells Vietnamese Premium Residential proxies that it says come from people in Vietnam who opted in through an in-app consent screen. It doesn't publish a Vietnamese IP count, but residential traffic supports targeting by country, city, postal code and ASN, and self-serve products come with a free trial that doesn't need a card.

Pricing is the same as its global Premium Residential product: $3.50/GB for small volumes, $2/GB from 50 GB, $1.50/GB from 250 GB and $0.70/GB from 1 TB, with enterprise rates from $0.50/GB through sales. That makes it one of the cheapest options on this list once you pass 1 TB a month. For fixed Vietnamese IPs, Rayobyte sells dedicated datacenter IPs in Vietnam from $0.85 per IP a month at scale, through sales and with a commitment — note these are datacenter addresses, not static residential (ISP) IPs, which Rayobyte offers in only six countries, not including Vietnam.

Rayobyte is certified by the Ethical Web Data Collection Initiative (EWDCI) and publishes more about its residential sourcing than most providers, which matters in a market where many cheap local proxies have no clear origin.

9. Infatica — Best for certified data handling

Infatica, a Singapore-based provider, claims 579,580 Vietnamese residential IPs and lists eight Vietnamese cities you can target: Ho Chi Minh City, Hanoi, Da Nang, Haiphong, Can Tho, Nha Trang, Ha Long and Thai Nguyen. That covers the main economic centres but not much beyond them.

Its strongest argument is governance. Infatica holds the widest ISO certification set we found among proxy providers (27001, 27701, 22301 and 20000-1) and requires KYC for all customers — useful if your procurement process asks suppliers to document privacy and security controls, which is increasingly common now that Vietnam's Personal Data Protection Law is in force.

Residential pricing is $4/GB pay-as-you-go, $3.84/GB on the 25 GB monthly plan, $3.60/GB at 100 GB and down to $2.60/GB at 1 TB, or $2.08/GB billed yearly at 12 TB. A $4 trial gives you 1 GB or 7 days, whichever comes first. Infatica's Vietnam page covers residential proxies only.

Other providers we considered

• NetNut — not recommended. On 2 July 2026 the FBI seized NetNut's domains in a coordinated action with Google and industry partners against the "Popa" botnet, which researchers linked to NetNut's residential network.
• Webshare — its Vietnam page claims 410,806 Vietnamese IPs and a free plan with 10 proxies, but the headline $0.029/IP price is for its shared proxy plans rather than residential traffic, and its own Vietnam FAQ quotes residential traffic "from $7.00/month for 1 GB" while its pricing page shows $3.50 for 1 GB. We couldn't confirm which of its proxy types are actually located in Vietnam.
• NodeMaven — has a Vietnam page for residential and mobile IPs and screens IPs for fraud scores before assigning them, which suits account work, but it doesn't publish Vietnamese IP counts, cities or carriers.
• Novada — its Vietnam page shows a counter of 10,092,504 Vietnamese IPs, which is far above every other provider's figure and hard to reconcile with Vietnam's market size, and it publishes no Vietnamese cities or carriers. Its prices there match its global plans ($1.30/GB residential at volume, static ISP from $1.18/IP).
• IPCook — its own Vietnam guide claims 1,390,374 Vietnamese IPs and residential prices from $0.30/GB, well below the rates on the pricing page we recorded for our residential guide; a younger, Hong Kong-based provider we haven't reviewed in depth.
• Proxy-Seller — sells IPv4, IPv6, ISP, mobile and residential proxies in 20+ countries and has a Vietnamese-language site, but we couldn't confirm on its English pages that it sells dedicated IPv4 or mobile proxies located in Vietnam.

Vietnamese use cases: practical tips

Shopee and TikTok Shop monitoring. Together these two platforms accounted for about 97% of the gross merchandise value across Vietnam's four big marketplaces in 2025, according to e-commerce data firm Metric: Shopee had more than 56% and TikTok Shop more than 41%, with Lazada and Tiki down to about 3% combined. Both run strong bot protection. Use rotating Vietnamese residential IPs, keep a sticky session for the length of each browsing "visit" rather than rotating on every request, and use a real browser or a well-maintained HTTP client with a realistic fingerprint. Many prices and vouchers also depend on the delivery address you set in the app, so set it explicitly rather than relying on the IP.

Local SEO on google.com.vn and Cốc Cốc. Google dominates Vietnamese search, but Cốc Cốc, a Vietnamese browser with its own search engine, still holds a few percent of the market and a larger share on desktop. For Google, use city targeting, set the hl=vi and gl=vn parameters and send an Accept-Language: vi-VN header. If Cốc Cốc matters for your audience, check rankings there too — its results are not the same as Google's.

Zalo, Facebook and social accounts. Zalo had 78.3 million monthly active users in mid-2025 and is the messaging app most Vietnamese businesses use with customers. Since Decree 147/2024 took effect on 25 December 2024, social networks operating in Vietnam must authenticate accounts using a Vietnamese mobile number (or an ID number for users without one), and only verified accounts may post, comment or livestream. A Vietnamese IP alone therefore won't let you create working accounts; you need legitimate phone verification. For existing accounts, use one dedicated mobile or long sticky residential IP per account and never share IPs between accounts.

Affiliate and "MMO" work. Vietnam has a large community doing affiliate marketing and multi-account advertising, which is why cheap Vietnamese proxies and accounts are sold so widely. Platforms such as Meta and TikTok link accounts through IPs, devices and payment methods, so a cheap proxy of unknown origin can get a whole set of accounts restricted. Use a reputable provider, one IP per account, and an antidetect browser profile per account; see our antidetect browser directory.

Ad verification. Vietnamese mobile campaigns are often targeted by carrier as well as by city. Mobile proxies with carrier targeting (ProxyEmpire, SOAX, Bright Data) let you see what a Viettel or MobiFone subscriber actually sees in-app and on the mobile web.

Gaming and streaming. Some games and Vietnamese streaming services serve different content or matchmaking regions to Vietnamese IPs. Residential or mobile IPs are less likely to be blocked than datacenter IPs, but per-GB pricing makes video and long gaming sessions expensive, and circumventing geo-restrictions may breach the service's terms. Don't buy proxies primarily for this.

How to test a Vietnamese proxy

Before you scale up, spend a few minutes checking that the IPs you're given really look Vietnamese and don't leak your own identity.

1. Check geolocation in more than one database. Use two or three IP lookup services. Geolocation databases disagree, especially for mobile IPs, which often geolocate to Hanoi or Ho Chi Minh City regardless of the user's real province. Expect some services to still show pre-2025 province names.
2. Check the ASN. A residential Vietnamese IP should belong to a consumer operator such as Viettel (AS7552), VNPT (AS45899) or FPT Telecom (AS18403); a MobiFone mobile IP will typically show AS131429. An ASN belonging to a hosting company, VPN or cloud provider means you've been given a datacenter or VPN-like exit, whatever the product page says.
3. Match your browser to Vietnam. Set the Accept-Language header to vi-VN, the browser locale to Vietnamese and the time zone to Asia/Ho_Chi_Minh (UTC+7). A Vietnamese IP with a US time zone and English-only language settings is an obvious mismatch for anti-bot systems.
4. Check for leaks. Test for WebRTC and DNS leaks, and make sure your real IPv6 address isn't bypassing the proxy — with Vietnam's high IPv6 adoption, Vietnamese sites are ready to receive IPv6 traffic, and a dual-stack connection can expose your own address if the proxy only handles IPv4.
5. Measure latency from where your client runs. Given Vietnam's repeated undersea cable outages, compare time-to-first-byte from your scraping region during each provider's trial, and consider running your client in Singapore or Hong Kong rather than Europe or the US.
6. Test against your real targets. A proxy that works on a geolocation checker can still be blocked by Shopee or TikTok Shop. Run a small batch against the sites you care about and measure the success rate before buying a large plan.

Is it legal to use proxies in Vietnam?

Using a proxy is not illegal in Vietnam as such, but Vietnam regulates online activity more closely than most of the markets we cover, and its rules changed significantly in 2025 and 2026. Four areas are most relevant:

• Cybersecurity. The Law on Cybersecurity No. 116/2025/QH15 took effect on 1 July 2026, replacing the 2018 Cybersecurity Law and the 2015 Law on Network Information Security. It covers unauthorised access to information systems, content obligations for online services and data localisation, and it applies to foreign as well as Vietnamese organisations.
• Personal data. The Personal Data Protection Law No. 91/2025/QH15 took effect on 1 January 2026, alongside a guiding decree that replaced Decree 13/2023. If you collect data about people in Vietnam — names, profiles, phone numbers — it applies, including to foreign organisations.
• Online accounts. Decree 147/2024, in force since 25 December 2024, requires social networks to verify users with a Vietnamese mobile number or ID number before they can post, comment or livestream. Using proxies to run unverified or fake accounts is likely to breach both platform rules and Vietnamese regulation.
• Platform terms. Website and app terms of use may restrict automated access, and breaching them can lead to account bans or civil claims regardless of where you are.

Choose a provider that explains how it obtains consent from the people whose devices route traffic, and avoid networks with no clear operator. This section is general information, not legal advice; take advice specific to your project if you plan large-scale collection of Vietnamese data.
