Transparency has long been regarded as one of the most important principles in socio economic management and state administration. Since its accession to the World Trade Organization (WTO), Vietnam has paid pecial attention and promoted transparency in all aspects, as it is one of the essential requirements to improve the efficiency of state management, ensure democracy and international commitments. In forestry production, in the context of the VPA-FLEGT that the European Union and the Government of Vietnam signed in October 19, 2018 in Brussels, Belgium, and the implementation of FLEGT licensing scheme planned from 2020, the full application of the transparencyprinciple is an important and urgent task. During the baseline survey and investigation of the impact monitoring of VPA-FLEGT research funded by FAO in 4 provinces (Phu Tho, Nghe An, Quang Nam and Binh Dinh) in 2018, SRD and the VNGO-FLEGT Network’s research team found 4 main issues related to transparency with HHs and MSEs in forestry production.
