Muslim community in Vietnam
- Islam is small but has a long history, especially the Cham community (Cham Muslims), both in the Central region (Ninh Thuan, Binh Thuan) and the Mekong Delta region (An Giang, Southwest).
- In Hanoi, the Muslim community is mainly foreigners and diplomats, because the local Muslim population is not large.
Mosque/Cathedral:
- Al‑Noor Mosque in Hanoi is the only mosque in Hanoi & the Northern region.
- Al Rahim Mosque in Ho Chi Minh City, District 1 is one of the important places of worship in the Southern region.
- In An Giang: Jamiul Azhar Mosque , Mubarak Mosque , Al Ehsan Mosque are churches and centers of the Cham Muslim community.
Halal / Muslim‑Friendly Travel in Vietnam

Recent Initiatives & Developments
- The Government and localities have plans to develop Halal tourism by 2030.
- For example, Quang Ninh is looking to become a Muslim-friendly destination, with Halal restaurants, service standards, prayer rooms, etc.
- Phu Quoc is also considered to have great potential to attract Muslim tourists, and is discussing applying Halal standards to tourism services on the island.
- Hanoi has many high-end restaurants/hotels that are providing Halal food service upon request; there is a Halal certification organization (HALCERT).
Advantages and challenges
| Favorable | Challenge |
|---|---|
| Beautiful nature, diverse culture, many places have indigenous Muslim communities (for example, Cham community), so there is a foundation to develop Halal tourism. | The number of clearly certified Halal restaurants/eatables is still limited in many areas. |
| Huge international demand: many tourists from Muslim countries & Muslims everywhere are looking for new destinations. | Service system is lacking: prayer room, staff who understand Halal requirements, private room/private dining in hotel, service time during Ramadan, etc. |
| Support from local & central government is gradually increasing, with Halal policy & certification. | Information for visitors is patchy — many places don’t clearly display Halal or Muslim‑friendly; it can be difficult to find outside of major cities. |
