Starlink may start operations in Vietnam 4Q: Tuoi Tre

SpaceX is poised to launch its Starlink satellite internet services in Vietnam by the fourth quarter of this year, according to a recent statement from a government official. The Ministry of Science and Technology aims to license the pilot services using low-orbit satellites as soon as the investor completes the necessary investment procedures and establishes a legal entity in Vietnam. The goal is to deploy these services in the fourth quarter of 2025, as reported by the Tuoi Tre newspaper [1].

Deputy Minister Pham Duc Long stated that the ministry is committed to facilitating the licensing process to ensure that Starlink can commence operations in Vietnam as soon as possible. This move is part of Vietnam's broader strategy to enhance its digital infrastructure and improve internet connectivity across the country.

The expansion of Starlink services into Vietnam comes at a time when the country is actively seeking to modernize its telecommunications sector. Starlink's high-speed, low-latency internet services could significantly impact the Vietnamese market, potentially offering high-quality connectivity to underserved regions.

Investors and financial professionals are closely watching this development, as Starlink's success in other markets has been a key driver for its stock price. The entry into Vietnam could further bolster SpaceX's market position and provide new revenue streams.
