Vietnamese people in France (Vietnamese: Người Pháp gốc Việt; French: Diaspora vietnamienne en France) consist of people of Vietnamese ancestry who were born in or immigrated to France. Their population was about 400,000 as of 2017, making them one of the largest Asian communities in the country.
Unlike other overseas Vietnamese communities in the West, the Vietnamese population in France had already been well-established before the Fall of Saigon and the resulting diaspora. They make up over half of the Vietnamese population in Europe.[2]
