Enterprise 04/01/2024

The term FDI enterprise describes foreign participation but does not create a single package of rights and obligations for every business.

Legal Landscape Termination of Labor Contracts

Legal Landscape Termination of Labor Contracts

Foreigners 26/01/2024

Ending an employment contract requires both an appropriate legal ground and the procedure attached to that ground. A business preference to end the relationship is not, by itself, a complete legal justification. Expiry, mutual agreement, unilateral termination, disciplinary dismissal and workforce reduction raise different questions. Review the employment contract and evidence before choosing a route. Notice should not be treated as a universal payment option that makes any dismissal lawful.

Blackmail laws and the legal consequences and protections

Blackmail laws and the legal consequences and protections

Dispute 22/12/2023

Threats accompanied by demands for money or property require careful and prompt attention. The legal classification depends on the actual conduct and evidence, rather than a generic label such as blackmail used in another legal system.

Where there is immediate danger, seek assistance from the competent local authority promptly.

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.

Advice on procedures for recognition of consensual divorce at Court

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 02/06/2023

Dividing land-use rights requires attention to both family property rules and the legal characteristics of the land. Records of acquisition, contributions and permitted use help determine whether a practical division or a value-based settlement should be considered. The discussion considers the acquisition records, agreements and financial evidence that can affect the assessment. It separates ownership questions from the practical implementation of a settlement and highlights why assumptions about equal shares or liability should be checked against the facts.

The jurisdiction to settle divorce involving foreign elements

The jurisdiction to settle divorce involving foreign elements

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 Registration Process in Vietnam for Foreign Investors

Investment Registration Process in Vietnam for Foreign Investors

Investment 10/10/2023

Foreign investment registration should follow a clear understanding of the project. A new company, an acquisition and a cooperation arrangement do not necessarily use the same procedure or approval sequence. Define the activities, location, capital, ownership and implementation plan. Review market-access conditions and whether investment-policy approval, project registration or an acquisition procedure applies. Avoid relying on an old ownership percentage as a universal test for every transaction.
