Enterprise 22/01/2026
Review legal planning for a foreign-owned accommodation business in Vietnam, including investment structure, premises, tourism conditions and safety duties. Ownership feasibility and company registration do not alone permit accommodation operations. Check the site's lawful use, construction position and applicable operational conditions before signing a lease or launching the business.
Enterprise 06/12/2025
Review the legal risks of hiring foreign workers in Vietnam, covering work authorization, employment contracts, payroll and ongoing compliance. Employers should align immigration documents, job duties, contract terms and payroll treatment. Changes of employer, role or location may require further review instead of assuming the original approval remains sufficient.
Enterprise 14/07/2023
An employee who disputes dismissal should preserve the decision, employment contract, disciplinary notices and payroll records before choosing how to challenge it. The legal grounds and procedure matter as much as the employer's description of the misconduct. The discussion explains the issues to review with a lawyer, including evidence of misconduct, participation in the disciplinary process and the remedies sought, without assuming that every dismissal produces the same result.
Enterprise 11/12/2023
Converting a joint-stock company into a single-member limited liability company changes its ownership and governance structure. The commercial aim and the method of reaching a single owner should be assessed before the conversion documents are drafted. Review the shareholder register, share classes, transfer arrangements and restrictions. A conversion following an acquisition requires reliable evidence of the completed ownership change. Any foreign investor involvement should be reviewed alongside the corporate procedure.
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 03/10/2023
Expulsion can have serious consequences for a foreign national's residence, work and family arrangements. The first step is to identify the actual decision and whether the matter concerns an administrative sanction, a criminal judgment or another immigration measure. Record the issuing authority, legal basis, alleged conduct, relevant dates and obligations. Obtain the documents in a form the affected person can understand and raise any interpretation needs. The available response depends on the procedural route, not on a general description of deportation.

Foreigners 16/10/2023
ベトナムの法的手続に関わる日本の個人や企業は、取引や問題の経緯、書類の利用目的を整理することから始めましょう。原本と翻訳、未取得の承認や署名を確認し、使用言語、担当者、費用と業務範囲を合意します。日本法の助言が必要な場合は、誰が担当し、ベトナム側の手続とどう連携するかを別途確認する必要があります。
Dispute 29/08/2025
Downsizing should be assessed as a structured employment process rather than a series of ordinary termination notices. The reason for the workforce change and the employees affected determine the requirements to examine. Explain the organizational, technological or economic change and review affected roles, redeployment and training possibilities. Assess whether a labor-utilization plan and consultation are required. A cost-saving objective should not be assumed sufficient for every proposed dismissal.
Dispute 29/05/2024
Individual labor disputes can involve unequal access to records and different accounts of the employment relationship. Legal support should begin with a clear description of the claim and the evidence available to each party. A lawyer can review the contract, identify legal and factual issues, calculate a payment claim and assess any preliminary procedure. Missing documents and inconsistent dates should be addressed early. Litigation should not be presented as an automatic next step for every workplace disagreement.
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.
Dispute 25/10/2025
A business receiving a lawsuit or procedural notice should identify the required response promptly. A calm, organized review is more useful than an immediate denial or an informal promise to resolve everything later. Keep the envelope or service record, claim documents and relevant contracts, correspondence, invoices and performance evidence. Identify the person authorized to instruct counsel. A lawyer can assess jurisdiction, deadlines, defenses and any counterclaim from the complete record.
Divorce 15/11/2022
A consensual divorce file should show both voluntary agreement and workable family arrangements. Preparing accurate marriage records and clearly recording the terms on children and finances helps the court assess the request without unnecessary ambiguity. 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 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 18/08/2022
Registering a marriage abroad does not, by itself, determine where a later divorce must take place. A Vietnamese case requires a jurisdiction assessment and suitable proof of the marriage, including any necessary treatment of foreign-issued civil-status documents. 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 13/10/2025
A divorce between a Vietnamese citizen and a foreign spouse can involve more than one country's documents and procedures. The initial assessment should establish the jurisdictional facts and the issues the court is being asked to determine. Review where both spouses live, the marriage registration, any prior proceedings and reliable address information. Foreign-issued records may need translation or other formalities. A nationality or residence fact should not be treated as a universal rule establishing jurisdiction by itself.
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.
Investment 22/05/2024
An investment registration certificate adjustment should reflect an actual change to the project or investor information. The first step is to describe the difference between the current record and the proposed situation. A name correction, capital change, new objective, location change and transfer of a project can raise different issues. Compare the certificate with actual implementation and reporting records. Corporate approval and evidence of funding or land arrangements should fit the change proposed.
Investment 16/12/2023
The term investment licence can conceal several different procedures. A project may involve investment-policy approval, an investment registration certificate, enterprise registration and sector permissions, depending on the current framework and its facts. Describe the activity, investor, ownership, location and scale. Determine which procedures apply and which authority handles each. An approval described in general commercial language should not be treated as a universal document authorizing every project.
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.
