Enterprise 10/11/2025
Foreign employers should assess Vietnam termination decisions under the applicable local framework rather than assume that an overseas policy can be used unchanged. The chosen legal ground and actual evidence determine the procedure to examine. Expiry, agreement, unilateral termination, redundancy and disciplinary dismissal are distinct. Review the contract, internal rules and evidence before deciding how to proceed. Paying notice does not automatically make an otherwise unsupported termination lawful.
Enterprise 22/12/2025
Understand foreign employee recruitment in Vietnam, work authorization, contracts, workplace rights and practical immigration compliance issues. Recruitment and work authorization should be planned together. Compare the approved role, actual duties, employing entity and residence documents, then keep HR records consistent throughout the assignment.
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 13/06/2026
Review M&A legal support in Vietnam, including transaction structure, due diligence, purchase documents, foreign ownership and post-closing compliance. A deal should be tested against the target's records and regulatory position before payment. Translate due diligence findings into conditions, warranties, indemnities and a closing plan that matches the transaction.
Foreigners 08/09/2026
Prepare a power of attorney for Vietnam with guidance on permitted tasks, foreign documents, settlement limits and representation for overseas clients. Define the matter and powers precisely before execution. Counsel should confirm which acts can be delegated and how authentication, translations and original-document requirements affect the proposed local procedure.
Foreigners 26/12/2025
Review tenant and landlord obligations in Vietnam, from rent and repairs to privacy, deposits, lease termination and resolving rental disputes. The lease should identify maintenance duties, access arrangements, payment evidence and exit consequences. Both parties benefit from clear handover records and a practical process for reporting defects and addressing breaches.
Foreigners 14/09/2023
Removing a senior director from a corporate position does not by itself answer how an employment contract should end. The appointment, employment relationship and any shareholder role should be reviewed separately before a decision is communicated. Examine the company charter, appointment resolution, delegation of authority and employment contract. A board or owner may have a corporate power to change management while the company still has employment obligations. The individual's actual status determines which procedures need analysis.
Foreigners 05/10/2022
A consensual international divorce works best when both spouses understand the required documents and participation arrangements. The joint file should explain the marriage and the agreed child or financial terms, while identifying any overseas records that need formal preparation. 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.
Dispute 28/08/2023
A land dispute can concern boundaries, land use rights, a transaction or inheritance. Correctly identifying the dispute and the available land records is essential before selecting an administrative or court route. The discussion focuses on case preparation and the distinction between land use rights and related contractual or family claims. Current land legislation and procedural competence should be checked before any application is filed.
Dispute 25/07/2023
A criminal matter with foreign elements can raise questions about jurisdiction, language, evidence abroad and the person's procedural status. Nationality alone does not determine guilt or the outcome of a case. This guide focuses on practical issues for suspects, defendants, victims and their families. It replaces broad assumptions about foreign nationals with a case-specific approach to documents, communication and lawful representation.
Dispute 28/07/2023
Commercial litigation begins with identifying the legal claim, the proper parties and the competent court. A clear chronology and a focused evidence file help turn a business disagreement into a properly defined request for relief. This article outlines the main stages without treating statutory preparation periods as a guaranteed completion date. Businesses should also assess contractual dispute clauses and settlement opportunities before proceedings begin.
Dispute 12/10/2023
Commercial arbitration begins with a valid basis for arbitral jurisdiction. The parties' agreement, the nature of the dispute and the applicable rules should be reviewed before a claim is submitted. Read the clause with the complete contract and any incorporated documents. Identify the institution or ad hoc arrangement, seat, language, number of arbitrators and scope of disputes covered. A dispute-resolution label alone may not resolve uncertainty about the agreed procedure.
Divorce 07/08/2023
A child custody dispute involving another country requires careful consideration of the child's welfare, existing orders, residence and any proposed relocation. An overseas element does not create a single automatic route for every family. The discussion explains why the countries involved and the available procedures must be checked individually. It avoids assuming that an international convention applies or that a foreign order can be enforced without further review.
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 27/09/2023
A divorce with foreign elements requires attention to both the family dispute and the cross-border procedure. Nationality, residence, a foreign marriage record or assets abroad can affect the questions that must be addressed before filing. Review where each spouse lives, how the marriage was registered and whether earlier proceedings exist. Foreign documents may require translation, authentication or a civil-status procedure depending on their origin and use. Do not assume that every international marriage follows the same preliminary steps.
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.
Investment 26/09/2023
Investment incentives depend on the project and the applicable legal conditions, rather than the investor's expectation of a tax saving. A project may need to establish its eligibility and complete procedures with the authority responsible for the particular benefit. Separate corporate income tax, import-duty, land-related and other benefits. Review the sector, location, project scale and any qualifying certification. An incentive mentioned in an investment document should be checked against the detailed rules governing its application.
Investment 22/09/2023
A foreign investor may contribute to a new enterprise or invest in an existing company. These are different transactions, and they should not be forced into a single sequence of obtaining certificates and transferring funds. Identify whether the proposal is a subscription for new capital, a purchase from an existing owner or an asset contribution. Review foreign ownership conditions, the target's activities and the required corporate approvals. The legal form of the company alone does not determine all capital requirements.
Investment 04/01/2024
BCC refers to a Business Cooperation Contract, while Build-Transfer-Operate is commonly abbreviated BTO. These are different concepts. The intended structure must be clarified before a legal assessment can be meaningful. A business cooperation contract sets out cooperation between investors without creating a new economic organization for that arrangement. A BTO infrastructure project involves a different public-private project structure. The parties, project and legal framework should be identified rather than combining the two descriptions.
Investment 20/07/2023
A foreign-invested company's capital increase may affect project capital, charter capital or borrowing arrangements in different ways. Identifying which figure changes is the starting point for planning the corporate decisions and registration work. The discussion helps investors organise existing certificates, ownership information and funding plans before deciding which approvals or amendments are required and how the steps should be coordinated.
