The Catholic Church in Vietnam is part of the worldwide Catholic Church, under the spiritual leadership of bishops in Vietnam who are in communion with the pope in Rome. Catholicism was introduced to Vietnam in the 16th century and firmly established by Portuguese and Italian missionaries of the Jesuit Order in the early 17th century.

This foundation was upheld by the French Paris Foreign Missions Society and the Spanish Dominican Order. The first Vietnamese priests were ordained in 1668, and the first Vietnamese bishops were appointed in the 1930s. In 1960, the Vietnamese Hierarchy was formally established. Once known as the eldest daughter of the Church in the Far East, Vietnam currently has approximately 7 million Catholics.
