Large-cap, mid-cap, and growth stocks each tend to go through cycles of doing better or worse than other segments of the stock market or the stock market in general. These periods have, in the past, lasted for as long as several years. Historically, mid-cap stocks have been more volatile in price than large-cap stocks. The stock prices of mid-size companies tend to experience greater volatility because, among other things, these companies tend to be more sensitive to changing economic conditions.&lt;/span&gt;</rr:RiskTextBlock>

The targeted percentage of the Portfolio&#x2019;s assets allocated to the underlying asset classes is:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;line-height:11.5pt;"&gt;&#x2022; U.S. fixed income securities - 42%  &lt;/span&gt;

The Portfolio&#x2019;s indirect stock holdings are a diversified mix of U.S. and foreign large-, mid-, and small-capitalization stocks.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;line-height:11.5pt;"&gt;The Portfolio uses its investment in large-cap U.S. stocks and small- and mid-cap U.S. stocks to gain exposure to the overall domestic stock market. Although the percentage of the Portfolio&#x2019;s assets invested in either of these two asset classes may deviate slightly from the target allocation, the combination of the two asset classes will equal approximately 24% of the Portfolio&#x2019;s assets in the aggregate.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;line-height:11.5pt;"&gt;The board of trustees of Vanguard Variable Insurance Funds may change the targeted allocation to the underlying asset classes without shareholder approval.&lt;/span&gt;</rr:StrategyNarrativeTextBlock>

If an underlying fund holds securities that are callable, the underlying fund&#x2019;s income may decline because of &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;font-style:italic;"&gt;call risk&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;"&gt;, which is the chance that during periods of falling interest rates, issuers of callable bonds may call (redeem) securities with higher coupon rates or interest rates before their maturity dates. An underlying fund would then lose any price appreciation above the bond&#x2019;s call price and would be forced to reinvest the unanticipated proceeds at lower interest rates, resulting in a decline in the underlying fund&#x2019;s income. For mortgage-backed securities, this risk is known as &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;font-style:italic;"&gt;prepayment risk&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;"&gt;.

If an underlying fund holds securities that are callable, the underlying fund&#x2019;s income may decline because of call risk, which is the chance that during periods of falling interest rates, issuers of callable bonds may call (redeem) securities with higher coupon rates or interest rates before their maturity dates. An underlying fund would then lose any price appreciation above the bond&#x2019;s call price and would be forced to reinvest the unanticipated proceeds at lower interest rates, resulting in a decline in the underlying fund&#x2019;s income. For mortgage-backed securities, this risk is known as &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;font-style:italic;line-height:11.5pt;"&gt;prepayment risk&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;line-height:11.5pt;"&gt;.

Large- and mid-cap value stocks each tend to go through cycles of doing better&#x2014;or worse&#x2014;than other segments of the stock market or the stock market in general. These periods have, in the past, lasted for as long as several years. Historically, mid-cap value stocks have been more volatile in price than large-cap value stocks. The stock prices of mid-size companies tend to experience greater volatility because, among other things, these companies tend to be more sensitive to changing economic conditions.&lt;/span&gt;</rr:RiskTextBlock>

These periods have, in the past, lasted for as long as several years. Historically, mid-cap stocks have been more volatile in price than large-cap stocks. The stock prices of mid-size companies tend to experience greater volatility because, among other things, these companies tend to be more sensitive to changing economic conditions.&lt;/span&gt;</rr:RiskTextBlock>

The Portfolio may become nondiversified, as defined under the Investment Company Act of 1940, solely as a result of an index rebalance or market&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;line-height:11.5pt;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;"&gt;movement.&lt;/span&gt;</rr:StrategyNarrativeTextBlock>

Stock markets tend to move in cycles, with periods of rising prices and periods of falling prices. The Portfolio&#x2019;s target index tracks a subset of the U.S. stock market, which could cause the Portfolio to perform differently from the overall stock market. In addition, the Portfolio&#x2019;s target index may, at times, become focused in stocks of a particular market sector, which would subject the Portfolio to proportionately higher exposure to the risks of that sector.&lt;/span&gt;</rr:RiskTextBlock>

Large-cap stocks tend to go through cycles of doing better&#x2014;or worse&#x2014;than other segments of the stock market or the stock market in general.

Passive management risk is the chance that the Portfolio&#x2019;s use of an indexing strategy will negatively impact the Portfolio&#x2019;s performance. Because the Portfolio seeks to track the performance of its target index regardless of how that index is performing, the Portfolio&#x2019;s performance may be lower than it would be if the Portfolio were actively managed. Tracking error risk is the chance that the Portfolio&#x2019;s performance will deviate from the performance of its target index. Tracking error risk may be heightened during times of increased market volatility or under other unusual market conditions. Index provider risk is the chance that the Portfolio will be negatively impacted by changes or errors made by the index provider. Any gains, losses, or costs associated with or resulting from an error &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;"&gt;made by the index provider will generally be borne by the Portfolio and, as a result, the Portfolio&#x2019;s shareholders.&lt;/span&gt;</rr:RiskTextBlock>

Because the Portfolio seeks to closely track the composition of the Portfolio&#x2019;s target index, from time to time, more than 25% of the Portfolio&#x2019;s total assets may be invested in issuers representing more than 5% of the Portfolio&#x2019;s total assets due to an index rebalance or market movement, which would result in the Portfolio being nondiversified under the Investment Company Act of 1940. The Portfolio&#x2019;s performance may be hurt disproportionately by the poor performance of relatively few stocks, or even a single stock, and the Portfolio&#x2019;s shares may experience significant fluctuations in value.&lt;/span&gt;</rr:RiskTextBlock>

Daily fluctuations in specific market sectors are often more extreme or volatile than fluctuations in the overall market. Because a significant portion of the Portfolio&#x2019;s assets are invested in the information technology sector, the Portfolio&#x2019;s performance is impacted by the general condition of that sector. Companies in the information technology sector could be affected by, among other things, overall economic conditions, short product cycles, rapid obsolescence of products, competition, and government regulation. Sector risk is expected to be high for the Portfolio.&lt;/span&gt;</rr:RiskTextBlock>

It illustrates the hypothetical expenses that you would incur over various periods if you were to invest $10,000 in the Portfolio&#x2019;s shares. This example assumes that the Portfolio provides a return of 5% each year and that total annual portfolio operating expenses remain as stated in the preceding table. You would incur these hypothetical expenses whether or not you were to redeem your investment at the end of the given period.

Passive management risk is the chance that the Portfolio&#x2019;s use of an indexing strategy will negatively impact the Portfolio&#x2019;s performance. Because the Portfolio seeks to track the performance of its target index regardless of how that index is performing, the Portfolio&#x2019;s performance may be lower than it would be if the Portfolio were actively managed. Tracking error risk is the chance that the Portfolio&#x2019;s performance will deviate from the performance of its target index. Tracking error risk may be heightened during times of increased market volatility or under other unusual market conditions. Index provider risk is the chance that the Portfolio will be negatively impacted by changes or errors made by the index provider. Any gains, losses, or costs associated with or resulting from an error made by the index provider will generally be borne by the Portfolio and, as a result, the Portfolio&#x2019;s shareholders.&lt;/span&gt;</rr:RiskTextBlock>

It illustrates the hypothetical expenses that you would incur over various periods if you were to invest $10,000 in the Portfolio&#x2019;s shares. This example assumes that the Portfolio provides a return of 5% each year and that total annual portfolio operating expenses remain as stated in the preceding table. You would incur these hypothetical expenses whether or not you were to redeem your investment at the end of the given period.

Investments economically tied to China are associated with considerable degrees of social and humanitarian, legal, regulatory, political, and economic uncertainty. Risks described above may be more pronounced for the Portfolio. All of these factors, among others, could have negative impacts on the Portfolio. For example, the Portfolio may not be able to access its desired amount of shares of companies incorporated in China that trade on the Shanghai and Shenzhen Stock Exchanges (A-shares) and/or the Hong Kong Stock Exchange (H-shares), which may cause the Portfolio to miss out on desirable investment opportunities. Investments economically tied to China may be (or become in the future) restricted or sanctioned by the U.S. government or another government, which could cause these securities to decline in value or become less liquid. If the Portfolio&#x2019;s holdings become impacted by restrictions or sanctions, the Portfolio may incur losses. Additionally, the Portfolio may gain exposure to certain companies in China through legal structures known as variable interest entities (VIEs), which provide exposure to Chinese companies through contractual arrangements instead of equity ownership. Investing through a VIE does not offer the same level of investor protection as direct ownership and is subject to risks including breach of the contractual arrangements, difficulty in enforcing the contractual arrangements outside of the U.S., and intervention by the U.S. government. These risks could significantly affect a VIE&#x2019;s market value, which in turn could impact the Portfolio&#x2019;s performance.&lt;/span&gt;</rr:RiskTextBlock>

Stock markets tend to move in cycles, with periods of rising prices and periods of falling prices.

In addition, the Portfolio&#x2019;s target index may, at times, become focused in stocks of a particular market sector, which would subject the Portfolio to proportionately higher exposure to the risks of that sector.&lt;/span&gt;</rr:RiskTextBlock>

Passive management risk is the chance that the Portfolio&#x2019;s use of an indexing strategy will negatively impact the Portfolio&#x2019;s performance. Because the Portfolio seeks to track the performance of its target index regardless of how that index is performing, the Portfolio&#x2019;s performance may be lower than it would be if the Portfolio were actively managed. Tracking error risk is the chance that the Portfolio&#x2019;s performance will deviate from the performance of its target index. Tracking error risk may be heightened during times of increased market volatility or under other unusual market conditions. Index provider risk is the chance that the Portfolio will be negatively impacted by changes or errors made by the index provider. Any gains, losses, or costs associated with or resulting from an error &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;"&gt;made by the index provider will generally be borne by the Portfolio and, as a result, the Portfolio&#x2019;s shareholders.&lt;/span&gt;</rr:RiskTextBlock>

A low or negative interest rate environment will adversely affect the Portfolio&#x2019;s return.

Passive management risk is the chance that the Portfolio&#x2019;s use of an indexing strategy will negatively impact the Portfolio&#x2019;s performance. Because the Portfolio seeks to track the performance of its target index regardless of how that index is performing, the Portfolio&#x2019;s performance may be lower than it would be if the Portfolio were actively managed. Tracking error risk is the chance that the Portfolio&#x2019;s performance will deviate from the performance of its target index. Tracking error risk may be heightened during times of increased market volatility or under other unusual market conditions. Index provider risk is the chance that the Portfolio will be negatively impacted by changes or errors made by the index provider. Any gains, losses, or costs associated with or resulting from an error made by the index provider will generally be borne by the Portfolio and, as a result, the Portfolio&#x2019;s shareholders.&lt;/span&gt;</rr:RiskTextBlock>

For funds that invest in mortgage-backed securities, extension risk is the chance that during periods of rising interest rates, homeowners will repay their mortgages at slower rates.

Passive management risk is the chance that the Portfolio&#x2019;s use of an indexing strategy will negatively impact the Portfolio&#x2019;s performance. Because the Portfolio seeks to track the performance of its target index regardless of how that index is performing, the Portfolio&#x2019;s performance may be lower than it would be if the Portfolio were actively managed. Tracking error risk is the chance that the Portfolio&#x2019;s performance will deviate from the performance of its target index. Tracking error risk may be heightened during times of increased market volatility or under other unusual market conditions. Index provider risk is the chance that the Portfolio will be negatively impacted by changes or errors made by the index provider. Any gains, losses, or costs associated with or resulting from an error made by the index provider will generally be borne by the Portfolio and, as a result, the Portfolio&#x2019;s shareholders.&lt;/span&gt;</rr:RiskTextBlock>

The Index includes approximately 8,353 stocks of companies located in over 47 markets. As of December 31, 2024, the largest markets covered in the Index were Japan, the United Kingdom, China, Canada, India, and France (which made up approximately 16%, 9%, 8%, 8%, 6%, and 6%, respectively, of the Index&#x2019;s market capitalization). The Portfolio obtains its exposure to the stocks in the Index by investing all, or substantially all, of its assets in a mix of Vanguard equity index funds (underlying funds).

Although the Portfolio seeks to track the Index, its performance typically can be expected to fall short by a small percentage representing operating costs of the underlying funds. The Portfolio is subject to the following risks through its investments in the underlying funds, which could affect the Portfolio&#x2019;s performance:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;"&gt;&#x2022;&#x2002;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;font-style:italic;"&gt;Special risks of investing in China.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;"&gt; The Portfolio&#x2019;s investments in companies or issuers economically tied to China are subject to the &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;font-style:italic;"&gt;country/regional&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;"&gt;, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;font-style:italic;"&gt;emerging markets&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;"&gt;, and &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;font-style:italic;"&gt;currency&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;"&gt; risks described above, in addition to unique risks. Investments economically tied to China are associated with considerable degrees of social and humanitarian, legal, regulatory, political, and economic uncertainty. Risks described above may be more pronounced for the Portfolio. All of these factors, among others, could have negative impacts on the Portfolio. For example, the Portfolio may not be able to access its desired amount of shares of companies incorporated in China that trade on the Shanghai and Shenzhen Stock Exchanges (A-shares) and/or the Hong Kong Stock Exchange (H-shares), which may cause the Portfolio to miss out on desirable investment opportunities. Investments economically tied to China may be (or become in the future) restricted or sanctioned by the U.S. government or another government, which could cause these securities to decline in value or become less liquid. If the Portfolio&#x2019;s holdings become impacted by restrictions or sanctions, the Portfolio may incur losses. Additionally, the Portfolio may gain exposure to certain companies in China through legal structures known as variable interest entities (VIEs), which provide exposure to Chinese companies through contractual arrangements instead of equity ownership. Investing through a VIE does not offer the same level of investor protection as direct ownership and is subject to risks including breach of the contractual arrangements, difficulty in enforcing the &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;"&gt;contractual arrangements outside of the U.S., and intervention by the U.S. government. These risks could significantly affect a VIE&#x2019;s market value, which in turn could impact the Portfolio&#x2019;s performance.&lt;/span&gt;</rr:RiskTextBlock>

Stock markets tend to move in cycles, with periods of rising prices and periods of falling prices. In addition, investments in foreign stocks can be riskier than U.S. stock investments. Foreign stocks may be more volatile and less liquid than U.S. stocks. The prices of foreign stocks and the prices of U.S. stocks may move in opposite directions. In addition, the Portfolio&#x2019;s target index may, at times, become focused in stocks of a particular market sector, which would subject the Portfolio to proportionately higher exposure to the risks of that sector.&lt;/span&gt;</rr:RiskTextBlock>

Passive management risk is the chance that the Portfolio&#x2019;s use of an indexing strategy will negatively impact the Portfolio&#x2019;s performance. Because the Portfolio seeks to track the performance of its target index regardless of how that index is performing, the Portfolio&#x2019;s performance may be lower than it would be if the Portfolio were actively managed. Tracking error risk is the chance that the Portfolio&#x2019;s performance will deviate from the performance of its target index. Tracking error risk may be heightened during times of increased market volatility or under other unusual market conditions. Index provider risk is the chance that the Portfolio will be negatively impacted by changes or errors made by the index provider. Any gains, losses, or costs associated with or resulting from an error made by the index provider will generally be borne by the Portfolio and, as a result, the Portfolio&#x2019;s shareholders.&lt;/span&gt;</rr:RiskTextBlock>

Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:&lt;/span&gt;</rr:ExpenseExampleNarrativeTextBlock>

Stock markets tend to move in cycles, with periods of rising prices and periods of falling prices.

Passive management risk is the chance that the Portfolio&#x2019;s use of an indexing strategy will negatively impact the Portfolio&#x2019;s performance. Because the Portfolio seeks to track the performance of its target index regardless of how that index is performing, the Portfolio&#x2019;s performance may be lower than it would be if the Portfolio were actively managed. Tracking error risk is the chance that the Portfolio&#x2019;s performance will deviate from the performance of its target index. Tracking error risk may be heightened during times of increased market volatility &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;"&gt;or under other unusual market conditions. Index provider risk is the chance that the Portfolio will be negatively impacted by changes or errors made by the index provider. Any gains, losses, or costs associated with or resulting from an error made by the index provider will generally be borne by the Portfolio and, as a result, the Portfolio&#x2019;s shareholders.&lt;/span&gt;</rr:RiskTextBlock>

Daily fluctuations in specific market sectors are often more extreme or volatile than fluctuations in the overall market.
