Terms

Based on the terms of the accord, three Vietnamese ports were opened (Đà Nẵng, Ba Lạt and Quảng Yên). Moreover, freedom of missionary activity was permitted and Vietnam's foreign affairs were under French imperial protection. Saigon, seized by the French in 1862, was declared the capital of French Cochinchina.

Overall, the treaty confirmed the tenets of the First Treaty of Saigon.
