This is the list of the stations on digital television in Vietnam. The channels that are available to viewers depends on the location.[1][2]
The current DVB-T2 television system is being used to broadcast television on the UHF band nationwide, with the participation of transmission providers: VTV, SDTV, VTC, AVG and DTV, on frequencies from E21–E48.
A brief outline of the TV digitization project
editOn December 27, 2011, Prime Minister Nguyen Tan Dung issued Decision No. 2451/QD-TTg approving the "Decision No. 2451/QD-TTg" project to digitize transmission and broadcast terrestrial television until 2020". The project officially started on April 1, 2014.[3]
Route
editTo implement the digitization plan, provinces and cities are divided into 4 groups on the basis of socio-economic development level, radio transmission conditions and local frequency allocation capability.[4] Each stage of television digitization will be done with each of these groups.[5] However, compared to the original schedule, the time to stop broadcasting analogue terrestrial television in some localities has been delayed for some time due to difficulties in preparation and implementation.

Result
editAt the press conference taking place on January 11, 2021, Minister Ministry of Information and Communications Nguyen Manh Hung announced that Vietnam has completed the shutdown of terrestrial analogue television and officially completed the project of terrestrial television digitization. Through the digitization of terrestrial television, Vietnam has:
- Released 112 MHz on the band 700 MHz, which is the band with the best coverage today for 5G mobile communications nationwide.
- Expanded digital terrestrial TV coverage to 80% of the population, compared to 50% of the population in 2011.
- Attracted social resources to cover terrestrial digital television.
- Organized and arrange all local radio and television stations in the direction of specialization and professionalism, focusing on producing program content and hiring transmission and broadcasting services.[citation needed]
In the world, Vietnam ranks 78th out of 193 countries that have completed turning off analogue terrestrial television.[4]
