Vietnamese Regulations On Internal Labor Rules In 2026

Enterprise 27/03/2026

Review internal labor rules in Vietnam, including written policies, mandatory contents, consultation, registration and practical disciplinary risk control.

Change of company background same district

Change of company background same district

Enterprise 22/07/2023

Moving a company's registered office involves more than changing the address on its stationery. Corporate approvals, the registration record, premises rights and related licences should be reviewed together. The original article concerns a move within the same district. This guide retains that context while focusing on the current administrative location and the practical documents needed to record the change consistently.

Choosing the Right Business Structure: LLC vs. Joint Stock Company

Choosing the Right Business Structure: LLC vs. Joint Stock Company

Enterprise 18/01/2026

Compare a Vietnam LLC and joint stock company, including ownership, governance, capital raising, transfer restrictions and practical structure selection. The suitable form depends on the number of investors, control arrangements and future funding plans. Review the charter and transfer mechanisms before incorporation so the structure supports both operations and eventual exit.

Legal Checklist Before Making FDI in Vietnam

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.

Provisions Of Vietnamese Law On Foreigners

Provisions Of Vietnamese Law On Foreigners

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.

Foreign Workers and Right to Severance Pay

Foreign Workers and Right to Severance Pay

Foreigners 28/02/2024

A foreign employee's final payment should be assessed item by item. Severance allowance, job-loss allowance, unpaid salary and compensation following unlawful termination are different concepts and should not be used interchangeably. Review the ground for ending employment, actual service and relevant exclusions or prior payments. Nationality alone does not answer whether a particular allowance is payable. The contract and payroll history help identify the applicable basis and any additional agreed benefit.

Dispute

Land Dispute In Vietnam

Land Dispute In Vietnam

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 Resolution Of Property Loan Contract

Dispute Resolution Of Property Loan Contract

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.

Lawyer Advise  On International Sales Contract Disputes

Lawyer Advise On International Sales Contract Disputes

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.

Settlement Of Property Disputes After Divorce

Settlement Of Property Disputes After Divorce

Dispute 06/09/2023

A divorce judgment does not always resolve every disagreement about property. A later claim may concern assets omitted from the proceedings, competing ownership claims or an agreement that one former spouse has not performed. Distinguish common property from separate property using the acquisition history, source of funds, gifts, inheritance records and any marital property agreement. A name on a certificate is one part of the evidence; it does not answer every question about contributions or ownership.

Divorce

Is it possible to regain child custody after the Judgemnet of the Court has obtained?

Is it possible to regain child custody after the Judgemnet of the Court has obtained?

Divorce 11/11/2022

A final divorce judgment does not make every parenting arrangement permanent. A later request to change the direct caregiver requires a legal basis and evidence focused on the child's interests, rather than dissatisfaction with the original result alone. The discussion considers the child’s welfare, the evidence parents can prepare and the practical effect of the proposed arrangement. It also distinguishes direct care from continuing support and contact obligations, so the request can be assessed on its own facts.

How long does a unilateral divorce take?

How long does a unilateral divorce take?

Divorce 08/09/2022

The duration of a unilateral divorce depends on the procedure and the work required in the individual case. Preparing a complete file can help, but disputes, overseas service, valuation and procedural difficulties may still extend the overall time. 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.

Visitation Rights After Divorce in Vietnam

Visitation Rights After Divorce in Vietnam

Divorce 31/03/2026

Review visitation rights after divorce in Vietnam, lawful restrictions, evidence of obstruction and practical options for resolving parental contact disputes. Keep records of agreed schedules, attempted contact and the child's needs. Legal remedies should be assessed against the existing decision and current law, with a focus on safe, workable arrangements for the child.

Procedure for divorce with foreigner without marriage notes in Vietnam

Procedure for divorce with foreigner without marriage notes in Vietnam

Divorce 18/10/2022

An overseas marriage and its recording in Vietnamese civil-status records are related but separate matters. Before seeking divorce, clarify how the marriage is evidenced and recognised, which records are available and whether any preliminary administrative step is needed. 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.

Procedures for Construction Investment Projects

Procedures for Construction Investment Projects

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 13/03/2026

Explore investment incentives under Vietnam's 2025 Investment Law, including eligible sectors, locations and the conditions behind potential benefits.

Vietnamese Regulations On Investment Project Approval (Latest Update)

Investment 03/04/2026

Understand investment project approval under Vietnam's 2025 Investment Law, including classification, competent authority and preparation before filing.

Regulations on Investment Registration Certificates

Regulations on Investment Registration Certificates

Investment 19/07/2023

An Investment Registration Certificate records information about an investment project. Determining whether a project needs one requires an assessment of the investor, proposed activities and applicable investment procedures. The article explains how project scope, capital, location and implementation plans fit into a registration review. Enterprise registration, sector licences and project approvals should be considered separately rather than treated as interchangeable documents.
