Enterprise 31/07/2023
Authorising a representative to submit enterprise registration documents does not remove the need for accurate information and proper company approvals. The scope of authority and the identity of the people involved should be clear. The guide separates authority to handle a filing from authority to make the underlying corporate decision. It also highlights the need to check current registration forms and electronic identification requirements before submission.
Enterprise 23/05/2026
Review a lawyer's role in foreign-invested company establishment in Vietnam, including structure, market access, documents, capital and licensing risks. Legal review should come before premises commitments or partner agreements. Match the business lines, investor records, charter and post-licensing duties to the operations the company actually plans to conduct.
Enterprise 26/12/2025
Avoid common employee termination mistakes in Vietnam by reviewing lawful grounds, procedure, evidence, final payments and dispute exposure. A business reason alone may not justify the method used to end employment. Review the contract, workplace rules, performance records, protected circumstances and proposed communications before issuing a decision.
Enterprise 05/09/2026
Explore enterprise legal services for foreign-owned companies in Vietnam, including governance, representative authority, contracts, compliance and disputes. Review the company charter and actual approval process together. Strong records and a clear allocation of authority help address signing risks, ownership changes and operational questions before they develop into internal conflict.
Foreigners 07/09/2026
Review inherited property matters in Vietnam for foreign clients, including heirs, estate documents, asset registration, overseas authorization and disputes. Identify the deceased's property separately from co-owned or marital assets. The procedure should account for the will, all relevant heirs and whether the beneficiary may register the asset or needs another lawful route.
Foreigners 12/09/2023
A foreign worker should not assume that a senior title, short assignment or intra-company transfer automatically removes the need for a work permit. Eligibility depends on the applicable exemption and the facts of the proposed work. Review the employer, position, location, assignment period and evidence supporting the claimed category. Some situations require confirmation or notification even when a permit is not required. A contract describing a person as exempt is not a substitute for the applicable legal conditions.
Foreigners 27/05/2024
A bonus dispute often turns on what was promised and which conditions were met. A discretionary award should be distinguished from a payment required by an agreed term or applicable policy. Review the employment contract, collective agreement where relevant, published bonus rules and communications. Identify who could approve the award, the performance period and the criteria used. A general expectation of an annual bonus is different from a documented entitlement.
Foreigners 16/03/2026
Explore how a law firm supports foreign clients and investors in Vietnam through investment review, contracts, compliance and dispute strategy. A useful engagement explains the legal issues, scope, deliverables and potential limits. Verify the team's qualifications and relevant experience before relying on advice for capital commitments or important commercial decisions.
Dispute 09/08/2023
A labour dispute involving a foreign employee, an overseas employer or evidence abroad requires both an employment-law and a procedural assessment. The first step is to identify the relationship, claim and connection with Vietnam. The article focuses on the practical documents needed to assess the dispute and distinguishes individual from collective procedures rather than treating all foreign-related employment claims as the same type of case.
Dispute 24/07/2023
A labour dispute may concern pay, dismissal, benefits or other obligations arising from employment. Classifying it correctly helps the parties identify the relevant procedure, evidence and available forum before taking action. The discussion explains how these routes relate to one another and why an employment contract, payroll record, written decision and chronology should be reviewed before selecting a dispute resolution strategy.
Dispute 15/08/2024
International sales disputes can concern delivery, quality, payment or contract termination. The legal analysis begins with the complete agreement, the parties' places of business and the law or rules that govern the sale. Review purchase orders, specifications, delivery terms, transport records, inspection results and payment documents. Identify notices of non-conformity or default and when they were sent. A disagreement about goods should not be reduced to a general statement that a contract was breached.
Dispute 23/10/2023
Property disputes may concern ownership, possession, a contract, compensation or an inheritance. These categories can overlap, but identifying the actual claim is necessary before selecting a forum or calculating the requested remedy. Explain what property is involved, how the claimant acquired an interest and what conduct is disputed. A boundary issue is different from an unpaid purchase price or a challenge to an inheritance. The documents should support the particular right claimed.
Divorce 14/10/2025
Child custody involving a foreign parent should focus on the child's interests and the evidence supporting a workable care arrangement. Nationality or income alone should not be presented as deciding the case. Describe existing care, schooling, health, living arrangements and the relationship with each parent. Prepare evidence of time, housing, support and practical caregiving. The child's views and the rules relevant to age should be assessed within the applicable family-law framework, rather than treated as an automatic choice of parent.
Divorce 12/08/2022
Unilateral divorce begins with a clear request and evidence supporting the applicable legal grounds. Preparing identity and marriage records is only part of the task: the petition should also explain any requests concerning children, support, assets and debts. The discussion separates legal requirements from practical preparation and identifies the issues to clarify before taking the next step. It explains why the documents, degree of agreement and specific relief requested should guide the approach rather than a general promise about timing or outcome.
Divorce 05/10/2022
Where a foreign spouse does not agree to divorce, the applicant must still satisfy the legal grounds and procedural requirements. Reliable marriage records, the respondent's location and evidence supporting the requested child or property orders are especially important. The discussion explains the preparation issues that international families should consider before filing. It connects document readiness with procedural requirements and highlights the need to assess overseas residence, service and practical participation without assuming that every case follows the same timetable.
Divorce 20/08/2022
A well-prepared unilateral divorce petition states the facts, the legal requests and the evidence relied on. It should distinguish the request to end the marriage from additional issues such as parenting, support, asset division and financial obligations. The discussion separates legal requirements from practical preparation and identifies the issues to clarify before taking the next step. It explains why the documents, degree of agreement and specific relief requested should guide the approach rather than a general promise about timing or outcome.
Investment 20/11/2023
An investment project registration should explain the project accurately rather than simply reproduce a generic business plan. Activities, location, funding and implementation schedule need to be consistent across the supporting documents. Describe what the project will do, who will implement it and how it will be funded. Review market access, land or premises and any related approvals. Confirm the applicable procedure under the current investment framework instead of assuming every project requires identical registration.
Investment 13/11/2023
A construction investment project requires a coordinated legal and technical plan. The appropriate documents and approvals depend on the project, funding, site and nature of the works. Review the proposed land use, planning status, investment arrangements and technical studies. Identify which design, environmental, fire-safety and construction requirements apply. Work with technical advisers so the legal filing reflects the actual design and intended operation.
Investment 17/10/2025
Hiring a foreign employee requires a review of the job and worker as well as the proposed employment terms. Work-permit eligibility or exemption should be assessed before the person begins work. Identify the employer, workplace, position, assignment period and relevant qualifications or experience. Determine the current procedure and evidence for a permit or exemption. A short assignment or intra-company transfer should not be treated as an automatic exemption without checking its conditions.
Investment 12/09/2023
A creditor's need to recover an unpaid debt does not justify threats, pressure tactics or the use of a prohibited business service. A restriction on the debt collection service business is different from the lawful enforcement of a creditor's contractual rights. Identify the contract, delivery or transfer of funds, maturity date and payments already made. A disputed invoice, an overdue loan and a debt acknowledged in a settlement require different factual analysis. Check who owes the debt and whether the claimant has standing to demand payment.
