Corona Resort & Casino (Phu Quoc)

Vietnam — PropertyREPORTED

Corona Resort & Casino, located on Phu Quoc Island in southern Vietnam, was the first casino in Vietnam allowed to admit Vietnamese citizens, under the pilot program established by Decree 03/2017. Opened in January 2019, the property was the testing ground for Vietnam’s domestic casino access policy. The pilot for Vietnamese players at Corona has been extended; in November 2025 a second five-year pilot began at The Grand Ho Tram.

In practice

Corona’s role as the regulatory test bed for Vietnamese domestic casino gambling makes it one of the most significant gaming policy experiments in Southeast Asia.
