History
The Vietnamese badminton team was formed following the establishment of the Vietnam Badminton Federation in 1958.

The team have lost in the quarterfinals until 2005 when the team defeat Singapore 3–2 to enter the semifinals for a guaranteed bronze. The team won when scratch pair Nguyễn Quang Minh and Nguyễn Hoàng Hải defeat Khoo Kian Teck and Alvin Fu to deliver the winning point for Vietnam.[3][4]
Vietnam competed in the 2023 SEA Games men's team event. The team put in their best efforts against the Malaysian team. Lê Đức Phát earned the team's first point when he defeated Lee Shun Yang, whom he previously lost to in the 2021 Southeast Asian Games.[5] The team failed to convert and lost 3–1 in the quarter-final stage.[6]
