Logo Design Contest to celebrate 50 years of UK-Viet Nam diplomatic relations.

On 11 September 1973, the United Kingdom and Viet Nam officially established diplomatic relations. Since then, the UK - Viet Nam bilateral relationship has grown steadily and rapidly in all fields, especially after the two countries upgraded their relationship to a Strategic Partnership in 2010.

2023 will be a landmark year for both the UK and Viet Nam as the two countries officially celebrate the 50th anniversary of establishing diplomatic relations. The British Embassy and Consulate General in Viet Nam will host a variety of cultural programmes, events, and activities to celebrate this memorable milestone.

With the desire to find a design that best represents the strong relationship between the two countries, we are organising a Logo Design Contest in celebrating the 50 years of the diplomatic relations between the United Kingdom and Viet Nam.

The winning design will become the official logo for all activities in 2023 of the British Embassy and Consulate-General in Viet Nam. The winner will also receive a certificate of merit and gifts from the British Ambassador to Viet Nam.
