LawyersInVietnam.com shares practical legal guidance from Jurion & Partners Law Firm for foreign individuals, international investors and businesses in Vietnam. Explore corporate and investment matters, commercial disputes, employment, immigration, property and family law. Our articles help you identify legal risks, organize relevant documents and prepare questions for a lawyer. For matters involving Vietnam and another country, start with a clear assessment of the applicable procedure and your priorities.
Enterprise 27/03/2026
Review internal labor rules in Vietnam, including written policies, mandatory contents, consultation, registration and practical disciplinary risk control. Policies should match the employer's workforce and actual operations. Before relying on a disciplinary rule, confirm that the required consultation, communication, registration and supporting records have been handled correctly.
Enterprise 11/03/2024
Adoption involving foreign elements requires a child-centered assessment under the applicable domestic and international framework. The process should protect the child's interests rather than be treated as an ordinary private arrangement between adults. Review the prospective parents' nationality and residence, the child's legal status and the relationship, if any, between them. Eligibility and procedure may depend on the legal framework connecting the countries. Do not assume that a family connection removes the need for required safeguards.
Enterprise 03/07/2026
Explore ongoing legal support for foreign-owned companies in Vietnam across contracts, employment, licensing, governance and early dispute strategy. Regular review helps management keep legal records aligned with operations. Seek advice before material contracts, HR action or licensing changes so risks can be assessed while corrective options remain available.
Enterprise 18/08/2026
Use a pre-FDI legal checklist for Vietnam covering market access, structure, approvals, capital accounts, local partners, contracts and compliance. Confirm the intended business activity and legal route before transferring funds. Due diligence and clear documentation can identify licensing, ownership and partner risks that are harder to correct after operations begin.
Foreigners 05/10/2023
Foreign nationals in Vietnam may need to address immigration, employment, civil and business requirements at the same time. A valid passport or residence document does not by itself establish permission for every activity. Identify the purpose of entry, lawful period of stay, work authorization and any proposed investment or professional activity. Different permissions serve different purposes. Family relationships, property transactions and disputes may also require their own legal analysis.
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 04/06/2026
Assess remote legal representation in Vietnam, including available tasks, authorization from abroad, key documents and risks for overseas clients. Start with scans and a factual summary, then confirm formal requirements before signing originals. Some tasks can be managed locally by counsel while other steps may still require the client's direct participation.
Foreigners 26/03/2024
An adopted child's inheritance position requires attention to the legally established adoption and the estate in question. A family disagreement should be assessed using records rather than assumptions about biological and adoptive relationships. Collect the adoption registration, death record, will and other family documents. Distinguish the deceased's property from jointly held property and identify outstanding obligations. The existence of a will may require a separate assessment of validity and protected interests.
Dispute 23/10/2023
Land disputes often involve a long history of use, incomplete records and competing accounts of agreements made years earlier. A legal assessment should begin with that history and the precise right in dispute. Gather certificates, allocation or transfer documents, maps, payment records and any previous settlement. Identify the actual parcel and the parties using it. A certificate is important, but the dispute and applicable procedure should not be decided from one document alone.
Dispute 22/08/2023
A property sale dispute often turns on what was promised, what was delivered and what was paid. Organising the contract, payment records, handover documents and correspondence is an essential first step. The article explains how the claim should be defined before proceedings begin. The type of property and transaction may affect formalities and available remedies, so the contract should be assessed in context.
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 16/10/2023
A loan dispute requires a clear account of what was advanced, when repayment became due and what has already been paid. The existence of a signed contract is helpful, but the surrounding payment evidence may be equally important. Separate principal, agreed interest, alleged default charges and other sums. Match each figure to the loan agreement and bank or receipt records. A disputed interest provision requires legal review rather than an assumption that every amount written in the contract is enforceable.
Divorce 17/07/2023
Property left unresolved after divorce may still require a separate assessment of ownership, earlier agreements and the terms of the divorce judgment. Begin by identifying the assets and the precise relief that remains in dispute. The discussion follows the dispute from document preparation to settlement and court proceedings, highlighting the importance of tracing contributions and checking whether an issue has already been conclusively decided.
Divorce 29/10/2022
Choosing a divorce lawyer involves understanding the work required in the specific case. Document review, legal analysis, negotiation and procedural assistance can all be relevant, but the scope of the engagement should remain clear and realistic. 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 28/12/2022
An older document checklist should be checked against the needs of the current case. A foreign-element divorce may require review of the marriage record, residence information, the respondent's overseas location and the formal preparation of documents issued abroad. 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 31/01/2026
Assess whether two foreigners can seek divorce in Vietnam, focusing on jurisdiction, overseas documents, residence and practical filing challenges. Nationality, residence and the legal connection to Vietnam must be examined together. Working in Vietnam alone should not be treated as automatic court jurisdiction, and document readiness does not replace that assessment.
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.
Investment 13/03/2026
Explore investment incentives under Vietnam's 2025 Investment Law, including eligible sectors, locations and the conditions behind potential benefits. Sector or location eligibility does not guarantee every tax or land-related benefit. Review the project's facts, applicable implementing rules and documentation before including incentives in a financial model.
Investment 04/09/2025
Enterprise registration and investment registration serve different purposes. Legal support should explain which procedures apply to the proposed business and how the work will be coordinated. Review the investors, activities, location, capital and management plan. Determine whether an IRC or other investment procedure is required under the current framework and how it connects to enterprise registration. Sector permissions may require separate work.
Investment 13/10/2025
Foreign property purchases in Vietnam should be assessed by reference to the buyer and the specific asset. Eligible housing ownership is different from owning land or acquiring unrestricted rights in every property. Review the buyer's status, project, property type and applicable restrictions or foreign ownership limits. Obtain the relevant project and seller documents and verify the information supporting the sale. A numerical quota alone does not establish that a particular unit is available to the buyer.
