Overseas Vietnamese (Vietnamese: người Việt hải ngoại, Việt kiều, or kiều bào) refers to the Vietnamese diaspora living outside of Vietnam.

The global overseas Vietnamese population is estimated at 5 to 6 million people.[71] The largest communities are in the United States, with over 2.3 million Vietnamese Americans, alongside significant populations in France, Australia, and Germany.[72][73] Smaller but historically important communities are also found in Southeast Asia, particularly in Cambodia.[74]

The Vietnamese diaspora emerged through several major waves of migration. Early migration occurred during the French colonial period in the late 19th and early 20th centuries,[75] followed by large-scale refugee exodus after the Vietnam War in 1975.[76] In later decades, the diaspora grew further through family reunification, economic migration, and educational opportunities.[77]

Overseas Vietnamese continue to maintain strong cultural connections, including continued use of the Vietnamese language,[78] observance of traditional festivals such as Tết (Lunar New Year),[79] and close familial and economic connections, including approximately $14 billion USD in annual remittances to Vietnam.[80]

They refuse to give up hope that someday their Cambodian identity will be accepted in the country they call home. Instead, with somewhere between 400,000 and one million members, according to independent scholars, and virtually no international calls for Cambodia to uphold its own nationality laws, they are arguably one of the largest and least-supported stateless populations in the world.

The end of the Vietnam War and the rapid U.S. military pullout in 1975 marked the beginning of large-scale migration from Vietnam to the United States. The U.S. government evacuated about 125,000 Vietnamese that year, most of whom had close ties to the U.S. military and could have been persecuted by the new Communist government. After their arrival, more Vietnamese refugees came to the United States seeking protection. The number of immigrants from Vietnam grew rapidly, roughly doubling in both the 1980s and 1990s, to 988,000 by 2000.
