Make state checkout field required for a Vietnam country in WooCommerce

The country of Vietnam in WooCommerce does not have defined states, so I added some states to my checkout page.

This is my code:

add_filter( 'woocommerce_states', 'vietnam_cities_woocommerce' );
   function vietnam_cities_woocommerce( $states ) {
     $states['VN'] = array(
      'HCM' => __('Hồ Chí Minh', 'woocommerce') ,
      'HANOI' => __('Hà Nội', 'woocommerce') ,
      'HAIPHONG' => __('Hải Phòng', 'woocommerce') ,
           );
      return $states;
}

It do work as I would like, but it is an optional field for Vietnam.

How to make this state field as required for Vietnam?

Any help is appreciated.

The following function will make for Vietnam the state field as a required in woocommerce:

add_filter( 'woocommerce_get_country_locale', 'custom_country_locale', 10, 1 );
function custom_country_locale( $locale ) {
    $locale['VN']['state']['required'] = true;

    return $locale;
}

Code goes in functions.php file of your active child theme (active theme). Tested and works.

Explanations: Each country have specific "locale" fields settings in WooCommerce. We are adding/altering the default WooCommerce country locale settings that are defined on WC_Countries get_country_locale() method
