The diplomatic relationship between Thailand and Vietnam was established in 1976 and continues to get stronger.

Thailand started investment in Vietnam in the 1980s, which increased during the 1990s. However, in 1997, the investment declined due to the economic crisis in Thailand. When the crisis passed, Thailand's investment in Vietnam was revived in the late 2000s, and was rated one of the top 10 foreign investors in Vietnam. It has now been 4 decades since Thailand and Vietnam founded their relationship. There are three factors related to investment, namely: 1) Geographical factors; 2) Political factors; and 3) Economic factors.
