Enterprise 08/10/2026
Review foreign-company branch establishment in Vietnam, including eligibility, permitted activities, parent-company documents, premises and continuing duties. A branch is a licensed extension of the parent company, not an automatic substitute for a local subsidiary. Confirm sector feasibility and authority limits before choosing the structure or committing to office costs.
Enterprise 09/08/2025
A foreign individual's position should be assessed separately from that of a foreign-invested enterprise. A housing ownership interest and a land-use right are not interchangeable, and the relevant certificate must reflect a lawful entitlement. Review the buyer's legal status, property type, project and seller's documents. The transaction may involve eligible housing, a lease or an enterprise investment structure. The available right should be explained before a deposit or other commitment is made.
Enterprise 22/01/2026
Review shareholder dispute risks in Vietnamese companies, from capital and voting rights to governance documents, negotiation and formal proceedings. Collect the charter, ownership records, approvals and correspondence before taking unilateral action. A clear assessment of authority and dispute clauses can help preserve operations while the parties consider settlement or legal remedies.
Enterprise 14/08/2023
Revocation of a household business registration raises different issues from the revocation or dissolution of a company. The notice, legal grounds and response deadline should be identified before deciding what action to take. The guide focuses on preparing the registration and compliance records needed for advice, while separating household business rules from enterprise procedures and avoiding reliance on superseded registration provisions.
Foreigners 08/07/2026
Learn when foreign clients should hire a lawyer in Vietnam, which warning signs need attention and how to prepare for an effective consultation. Seek review before signing binding documents or responding to official demands. A concise chronology, complete records and a clear objective help counsel assess urgency and the available legal options.
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 27/01/2026
Prepare for marriage registration between a foreigner and Vietnamese citizen, with guidance on civil-status documents, filing and personal attendance. Confirm the parties' eligibility and the correct document route before travel. Previous marriages, inconsistent names and foreign-issued records can require additional preparation even when the couple agrees on the registration.
Foreigners 31/01/2026
Review foreign property ownership in Vietnam, including buyer eligibility, eligible housing projects, ownership limits, contract risks and registration. Verify the buyer and specific unit before paying a deposit. Distinguish housing ownership from land rights, and check the project documents, applicable quota, ownership term and proposed transfer route.
Dispute 19/09/2026
Organize evidence before dispute proceedings in Vietnam, including contracts, electronic communications, losses, authority records and procedural review. Link each record to the facts that need proof instead of submitting an unstructured archive. Early review helps protect originals, identify missing materials and compare settlement, arbitration and court options.
Dispute 19/06/2026
Review employment lawyer support in Vietnam for foreign employees and employers, including contracts, workplace rules, termination and labor disputes. Assess the contract, compensation records and procedural history before resigning or terminating employment. Legal advice can help compare negotiation and dispute options while addressing work authorization and final-payment issues.
Dispute 23/10/2023
A deposit dispute may arise when a proposed property transfer cannot proceed or one party refuses to complete it. The legal effect depends on the agreement, the conduct of the parties and the status of the proposed transaction. Identify the property, the party receiving the deposit, the signing authority and the conditions for the main transfer. An apparent promise to sell does not establish that the transaction is legally available. Keep advertisements and representations alongside the signed documents.
Dispute 21/12/2023
Secret filming or unauthorized use of photographs can affect image rights, privacy and personal information. The consequences depend on what was recorded, how it was obtained or used and the circumstances; not every act automatically constitutes a criminal offence. Keep the original messages, dates, account details and evidence of publication where it is safe and lawful to do so. Avoid reposting intimate or private material while trying to prove what happened. Record any request for removal and response.
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 25/10/2022
Before filing for divorce, separate the decision to end the marriage from the consequences that also need attention. Children, support, ownership and debts may require their own evidence, even where both spouses agree that the marriage should end. 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 11/01/2023
A foreign element is not a reason to rely automatically on an old provincial-court filing rule. Current court competence and territorial jurisdiction should be assessed against the amended Civil Procedure Code and the facts connecting the case to Vietnam. 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 05/10/2022
Where a foreign spouse does not agree to divorce, the applicant must still satisfy the legal grounds and procedural requirements. Reliable marriage records, the respondent's location and evidence supporting the requested child or property orders are especially important. 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.
Investment 24/07/2026
Review employment law issues for foreign companies in Vietnam, from contracts and internal rules to work permits, termination and labor dispute planning. Coordinate management, HR and legal records before hiring or restructuring. International policies should be adapted to the local employment relationship and supported by consistent documents and a lawful decision process.
Investment 04/09/2025
Enterprise registration and investment registration serve different purposes. Legal support should explain which procedures apply to the proposed business and how the work will be coordinated. Review the investors, activities, location, capital and management plan. Determine whether an IRC or other investment procedure is required under the current framework and how it connects to enterprise registration. Sector permissions may require separate work.
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 07/09/2023
Adding a new business activity can affect more than the wording of a certificate. The proposed activity must be compared with the existing investment project, enterprise registration, premises and any operating licence. Prepare a plain-language description of the services or goods, customer groups and revenue model. Similar commercial descriptions may fall under different regulatory conditions. Foreign market-access requirements and conditions applying to all operators should be reviewed separately.
