The visit will be made at the invitation of State President Luong Cuong and his spouse.

Viet Nam and Bhutan set up diplomatic ties on January 19, 2012. The two countries have maintained mutual support at multilateral forums.

Bhutan backs Viet Nam's bid to win a seat on Radio Regulations Board (RRB) of the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) for the 2015-2018 term.

Bhutan also supports Viet Nam to become a non-permanent member of the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) for the 2020–2021 term.

Meanwhile, Viet Nam has supported Bhutan's candidate for membership to the UN Committee on the Rights of the Child (CRC) for the 2025–2029 term./.
