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 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.
Enterprise 24/01/2026
Understand business licensing in Vietnam, including sector conditions, foreign investment issues, application risks and continuing compliance after approval. Identify each permission required for the actual activity rather than relying only on the company registration. Revisit licensing when ownership, location, operating scope or the regulatory framework changes.
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.
Foreigners 21/08/2023
Foreign tenants should review the landlord's authority, the premises and the lease terms before paying a deposit. Rent, repairs, early termination and the conditions for returning the deposit should be recorded clearly. The discussion explains how a written agreement and handover record can reduce uncertainty. Immigration-related residence obligations should also be considered separately from the commercial terms of the lease.
Foreigners 18/01/2026
Explore legal support for foreigners in Vietnam across disputes, corporate matters, employment, property and family law, with practical preparation tips. Choose counsel by relevant practice experience, professional status and clear communication. Define the scope, documents and fees early, and ask which tasks require authorization or personal attendance.
Foreigners 20/12/2025
Read how LawyersInVietnam.com handles consultation information, technical records, privacy requests, access controls and lawful data sharing. This notice explains the main purposes of processing information submitted through the website. Clients should share relevant information carefully and use an agreed secure channel for sensitive case documents.
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 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 22/01/2026
Understand criminal defence support for foreign defendants in Vietnam, including procedural rights, interpretation, evidence and early case assessment. Clarify the person's procedural status and obtain advice before important statements or submissions. Defence strategy should be based on the allegation, evidence and applicable safeguards, with coordination for interpretation and consular contact where relevant.
Dispute 26/03/2024
A business dispute can sometimes be resolved by agreement, but a formal remedy may also be necessary. Choosing a route requires attention to the contract, the dispute and the result that can realistically be implemented. Negotiation keeps the discussion with the parties, while mediation introduces a neutral facilitator. A proposed settlement should address authority to sign, payment or performance, defaults and enforcement. The legal effect of an agreement depends on its form and any available recognition procedure.
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.
Divorce 07/11/2022
A request for direct custody should demonstrate the care a parent can actually provide. Financial records help, but they should be considered alongside time, housing, schooling, emotional support and the child's established routines and relationships. 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.
Divorce 25/08/2022
The most useful way to prepare a divorce petition is to make the facts and requests understandable from the outset. Accurate civil-status records, a coherent chronology and clearly identified child or property issues can reduce avoidable requests for clarification. 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 13/08/2022
Consensual divorce depends on genuine agreement and workable arrangements that protect the legitimate interests of the wife and children. A signed application alone does not end the marriage: the competent court must review the request and issue the appropriate decision. 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 02/08/2022
A spouse living overseas or unable to attend creates practical questions about notice, evidence and personal participation. The court must assess the legal requirements for proceeding in absence; a lawyer cannot simply attend as a substitute for a spouse in the divorce itself. 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 15/08/2024
An acquisition can provide access to an existing business, but it also requires careful assessment of that business's legal position. A share purchase, subscription and company merger allocate risks differently. Review ownership, corporate authority, licences, land or premises, material contracts, employment, tax and disputes. Identify missing records and contingent obligations. The structure and price should be considered alongside legal findings rather than before the scope of due diligence is agreed.
Investment 15/08/2023
Foreign investment capital enters Vietnam through transactions and projects with different legal requirements. Investors should connect the proposed funding route with ownership conditions, approvals, banking arrangements and the business plan. The discussion considers the opportunities together with their conditions. Incentives and market entry permissions should be verified for the particular project rather than assumed from a general description of an industry.
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 28/11/2023
Foreign individuals and foreign-invested enterprises should not assume that the same property rights are available to each of them. Housing ownership, a commercial lease and land use for an investment project involve different legal questions. Review nationality or corporate status, the type of asset, project eligibility and the proposed use. A foreign individual should not treat an agreement with a nominee as equivalent to a lawful registered right. The available structure must fit both the investor and the asset.
