This data article presents the datasets obtained during the years 2011–2012 in the Provinces of Bắc Giang and Bắc Ninh (Northern Vietnam) in the framework of an International Cooperation project aimed at the restoration and preservation of natural resources together with the improvement of life conditions of the local population. All information relative to sampling strategy, location and description of the studied sites are reported, together with analytical data (i.e. grain size, Total Organic Carbon, Organic Nitrogen, C/N ratio, δ13C, PolyChlorinated Biphenyls, Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons, PolyBrominated Diphenyls Ethers, PolyChlorinated Dibenzo-p-Dioxins and Furans, OrganoChlorine Pesticides, Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons). In addition, maximum admitted levels, quality standards and emission limits set by the Vietnamese environmental regulations are reported in comparison to Italian ones for the following parameters and environmental compartments: noise, soils, air, drinking and groundwaters, sediments. Interpretation of this dataset is fully discussed in Giuliani et al. (2019) [1]. Keywords: International cooperation, Northern Vietnam, POPs, Soils, Sediments, Management advice, Dataset
