Resumo

Sustainable tourism is becoming an inevitable trend in the tourism development strategies of many countries to ensure a balance among economic growth, environmental protection, and social justice. In Vietnam, although the tourism legal system has gradually approached the principles of sustainable development, the effectiveness of implementation in practice remains limited. This study aims to analyze the current legal framework on sustainable tourism in Vietnam, assess its application, and point out inadequacies in the enforcement process. Through analysis, comparison, and synthesis of current legal regulations, combined with a review of tourism management and development practices in some localities, the study clarifies outstanding issues, including the lack of synchronization of the legal system, ineffective monitoring and sanctioning mechanisms, and the limited role of local communities in sustainable tourism development. On that basis, the article proposes a number of solutions to improve the law on sustainable tourism in Vietnam, focusing on strengthening the responsibilities of relevant entities, improving implementation effectiveness, and approaching international standards. The research results contribute to providing scientific arguments for the development and improvement of legal policies on sustainable tourism in Vietnam.
