The October 18 signing covers Norway, Switzerland, Iceland and Liechtenstein, adding a separate agreement alongside Vietnam’s existing European Union trade deal.
Vietnam signed a free-trade agreement with the European Free Trade Association (EFTA) in Hanoi on October 18, 2026, DW reports. The agreement concerns trade with EFTA’s four members: Norway, Switzerland, Iceland and Liechtenstein.
The agreement is separate from the EU–Vietnam Free Trade Agreement, which took effect in August 2020. That earlier deal substantially expanded Vietnam’s commercial ties with most European states, according to DW; the October signing concerns the four EFTA countries instead.
