The Roman Catholic church in Vietnam comprises solely a Latin rite hierarchy, joint in a nation episcopal conference (Hội Đông Giám Mục Việt Nam ), comprising three Metropolitan Archdioceses and in total 23 Suffragan dioceses.

There are no Eastern Catholic, (missionary) pre-diocesan or other exempt jurisdictions.

There are no titular sees, all defunct jurisdictions have current Latin successor sees.

There formally is an Apostolic Delegation to Vietnam as papal diplomatic representation (Non-Residential, below embassy-level), but it is vested in the Apostolic Nunciature to Singapore in its national capital Singapore.
