Vietnam Olympic Committee (VOC; Vietnamese: Ủy ban Olympic Việt Nam, IOC code: VIE) or fully the Olympic Committee of the Socialist Republic of Viet Nam (Ủy ban Olympic nước Cộng hòa xã hội chủ nghĩa Việt Nam) is the National Olympic Committee representing Vietnam.

The insignia and logo of VOC is a stylized national flag of Vietnam placed above the Olympic rings. It has been serving as the official symbol of the Vietnamese Olympic movement since 1979, when VOC was officially recognized by IOC under the name of the reunified Vietnamese nation.
