Nowadays, a .vn domain name can be registered from all over the world via a worldwide .vn accredited registrar system.
The number of national domain name ".vn" surpassed 500,000 domains, ranked first in Southeast Asia & ASEAN and ranked TOP 10 in the Asia-Pacific region in terms of number of domain names maintained in use.

- In 2003, Dot VN, Inc. signed a contract with VNNIC allowing the company to market .vn domain names abroad.
