The Embassy of Vietnam in London is the diplomatic mission of Vietnam in the United Kingdom.[1] Vietnam also maintains a Commercial Section at 108 Campden Hill Road, Holland Park.[2] It was supposedly designed in 1959 by Ngo Viet Thu, a preeminent modernist architect of Vietnam.

In 1988, a diplomat from the embassy was expelled for waving a gun at protestors.[3]

In 2000, a fire was started in the embassy building after a break-in by a Vietnamese person, who was subsequently arrested.[4]
