Structures for a vertical-transport field-effect transistor and an electrical fuse integrated into an integrated circuit, and methods of fabricating a vertical-transport field-effect transistor and an electrical fuse integrated into an integrated circuit. A doped semiconductor layer that includes a first region with a first electrode of the vertical electrical fuse and a second region with a first source/drain region of the vertical-transport field effect transistor. A semiconductor fin is formed on the first region of the doped semiconductor layer, and a fuse link is formed on the second region of the doped semiconductor layer. A second source/drain region is formed that is coupled with the fin. A gate structure is arranged vertically between the first source/drain region and the second source/drain region. A second electrode of the vertical fuse is formed such that the fuse link is arranged vertically between the first electrode and the second electrode.
