Current: 2025–26 V.League 1

V.League 1 (Vietnamese pronunciation: [vi:˧ li:k˧], Vietnamese: Giải bóng đá Vô địch Quốc gia, lit.'National Football Championship'), also called LPBank V.League 1 for sponsorship reasons, is the top professional football league in Vietnam, controlled by the Vietnam Professional Football Joint Stock Company (VPF). It is contested by 14 clubs who play each other on a home and away basis. The team finishing at the top at the end of the season is crowned the champion and enters the AFC Champions League Two.

The league was founded in 1980 as the National A1 League, with Tổng Cục Đường Sắt being the first winner. The league turned professional in the 2000–01 season, which allowed clubs to hire foreign players. Vietnam Professional Football (VPF) was established in 2012, and the organising power was transferred from the Vietnam Football Federation (VFF) to Vietnam Professional Football Jointstock Company (VPF).

Thể Công-Viettel and Hà Nội have won the title 6 times each, the most among V-League clubs. The current champion is Thép Xanh Nam Định which won the 2024–25 edition.
