Joseph Ðặng Ðức Ngân (Vietnamese: Giuse Đặng Đức Ngân) is a Vietnamese prelate since 2007. He was ordained in 1987 for the Archdiocese of Hà Nội by Cardinal Joseph-Marie Trịnh Văn Căn.[1] After learning in Rome at the Pontifical Urban University, he became the secretary to both Cardinals Joseph-Marie Trịnh Văn Căn and later Paul Joseph Phạm Đình Tụng.[2] He was appointed vicar general of the archdiocese by Archbishop Joseph Ngô Quang Kiệt in 2005. On 12 October 2007, Pope Benedict XVI appointed him Bishop of Lạng Sơn and Cao Bằng and was consecrated bishop by Joseph Ngô Quang Kiệt on 3 December of that same year at Saint Dominic Cathedral in Lạng Sơn.[3] On 12 March 2016, he was appointed Bishop of Đà Nẵng with Bishop Joseph Châu Ngọc Tri becoming Bishop of Lạng Sơn and Cao Bằng. This is the first time this has happened in the history of the Church in Việt Nam.[4] On 21 September 2023, he was appointed Coadjutor Archbishop of Huế having the right to succeed Archbishop Joseph Nguyễn Chí Linh and to aid Linh in his ministry.[1][5]
