A 2024 USCIRF report on Vietnam's state control of religion, documenting that membership in the Communist Party-run Vietnam Fatherland Front is a de facto requirement for a religious organization's registration under the 2016 Law on Belief and Religion, which gives the Front a role in drafting and overseeing religious policy rather than establishing any direct state funding channel to religious bodies.
