"Since there has never been a census of deaf people in Viet Nam, the real number of signers is unknown. However, some estimate of the number of signers can be made.... Using United Nations estimates of 1 person out of every 1,000 person born profoundly deaf or becoming profoundly deaf at an early age, there would be an estimate of 38,878 deaf people living in the area where HNSL is used. The estimated number of users of HNSL is up to 39,000 users."

Almost all schools in the northern part of Viet Nam are oral only or use some simultaneous communication. One program in Ha Noi at the National College of Education has indicated it will start using HNSL as it is used by fluent Deaf users
