Despite the great efforts we make in compiling the report, shortcomings and limitations are unavoidable, especially for meeting the requirements of in-depth information. We wish to receive comments from all users to continuously improve quality of the subsequent publications of the 2019 Viet Nam Population and Housing Census.

The 2019 Population and Housing Census collected basic information on the demographics of over 96.2 million people who were primary residents of nearly 26.9 million households in Viet Nam at 0:00 a.m. on 1 April 2019. To supplement information gathered on fertility, mortality, and migration, data on labor and employment and household living conditions was collected from the sample survey of 9% of households nationwide (approximately 8.2 million persons living in more than 2.3 million households). The 2019 Population and Housing Census utilized information technology in all aspects of the Census to improve information quality, increase the transparency of the statistical analysis process, shorten the time required for data processing, and reduce costs.
