Enterprise 14/09/2026
Prepare evidence for commercial disputes in Vietnam through a complete contract file, factual chronology, original records and a realistic forum strategy. Collect performance, communications and damages evidence before sending a formal claim. Preserve original files and distinguish translations so counsel can assess notice compliance, remedies and any evidentiary gaps.
Enterprise 01/10/2026
Review enterprise legal services in Vietnam for foreign companies, from business structure and licensing to governance, employment and restructuring. Legal support should follow the company's lifecycle and actual activities. Coordinate the charter, approvals, contracts and operational permissions before expansion, ownership changes or a material commercial commitment.
Enterprise 22/07/2023
A company's legal representative performs an important role in dealings with counterparties, authorities and courts. The company charter, appointment documents and allocation of authority should make that role clear. This guide helps owners distinguish the legal representative from an authorised delegate or external lawyer and identify the corporate records to check when appointing, replacing or temporarily delegating the role.
Enterprise 25/10/2025
An e-commerce business should align its legal documents with how the service actually works. A marketplace, online retailer and service platform may face different obligations and risks. Review the operator, sellers, payment flow, product information, pricing and order process. Determine the relevant registration or notification requirements and sector conditions. Terms of service should be readable and consistent with the business's actual cancellation, refund and delivery practices.
Foreigners 16/10/2024
Marriage registration in Vietnam should be planned around the couple's nationalities, residence and civil-status history. A wedding celebration and a legal registration serve different purposes, and the required documents should be checked for the actual case. Review identity, marital status, any previous marriage and the conditions applicable to each party. Determine the competent registration authority under the current framework. Avoid assuming that a general checklist applies to every nationality or residence situation.
Foreigners 22/06/2026
Plan remote legal representation in Vietnam through case review, document preparation, clear authorization and controlled reporting for clients abroad. Agree on the scope before signing a power of attorney. The client should retain control over settlements and other major decisions, while counsel checks whether personal attendance or authenticated originals are required.
Foreigners 21/09/2026
Understand remote legal representation in Vietnam, including suitable matters, authorization scope, foreign documents and limits for personal-status cases. Agree on local tasks and reporting while retaining control over major decisions. Some procedures, particularly divorce-related participation, have limits that a broad power of attorney cannot remove.
Foreigners 05/07/2024
Les clients francophones peuvent avoir besoin de relier des documents étrangers aux procédures vietnamiennes à Hô Chi Minh-Ville. Commencez par un résumé précis, les pièces complètes et leur usage prévu. Clarifiez qui conseille, qui organise les traductions ou l’authentification, les éventuelles comparutions, les livrables et les frais. Les questions de droit français doivent faire l’objet d’une répartition explicite des responsabilités.
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. Keep messages, payment demands, account information and records of the events without editing the originals. Avoid unsafe confrontation or public dissemination of private material. Where there is immediate danger, seek assistance from the competent local authority promptly.
Dispute 10/10/2023
An intellectual property dispute may concern ownership, a licence, unauthorized use or the scope of protection. Copyright, trademarks, patents and confidential business information raise different evidence and enforcement questions. Identify who owns the right and collect registrations, creation records, assignments or licence terms. Document how the other party used the material, sign or technology and distinguish suspected infringement from a disagreement about a contract.
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 22/08/2023
A property sale dispute often turns on what was promised, what was delivered and what was paid. Organising the contract, payment records, handover documents and correspondence is an essential first step. The article explains how the claim should be defined before proceedings begin. The type of property and transaction may affect formalities and available remedies, so the contract should be assessed in context.
Divorce 31/01/2026
Assess whether two foreigners can seek divorce in Vietnam, focusing on jurisdiction, overseas documents, residence and practical filing challenges. Nationality, residence and the legal connection to Vietnam must be examined together. Working in Vietnam alone should not be treated as automatic court jurisdiction, and document readiness does not replace that assessment.
Divorce 22/10/2022
A custody proposal should explain how the child's daily care, education and emotional needs will be met. Parents should also consider support and continuing contact with the other parent, rather than treating direct care as the end of all shared responsibilities. 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 29/08/2023
Dividing property after divorce begins with identifying whether an asset is common or separate and reviewing any valid property arrangement. The source of the funds and supporting records matter as much as the name on a document. The article describes a structured approach to the asset inventory and the points that commonly cause disagreement. It does not assume that every asset acquired during marriage must be divided in the same way.
Divorce 26/12/2022
Although the title refers to an earlier year, property analysis should be based on the law applicable to the present dispute. The starting point is to identify the assets, the property regime and any agreement before considering the statutory division factors. 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.
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 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.
Investment 24/11/2025
Review legal steps for a wholly foreign-owned company in Vietnam, including market access, investment registration, enterprise records and compliance. Confirm which approvals apply to the actual project rather than relying on one filing sequence. Investor documents, premises, capital and governance arrangements should support the intended business after registration.
Investment 09/11/2023
A securities investment company is a regulated structure and should not be confused with an ordinary company that invests its own surplus funds. The proposed model determines which specialized rules and approvals require examination. Clarify whether the proposal involves a public or private structure, who will provide capital and who will manage it. Review the roles of any fund manager, custodian and governing body. Investor eligibility and capital evidence should be assessed under the current securities framework.
