Enterprise 03/07/2026
Explore ongoing legal support for foreign-owned companies in Vietnam across contracts, employment, licensing, governance and early dispute strategy. Regular review helps management keep legal records aligned with operations. Seek advice before material contracts, HR action or licensing changes so risks can be assessed while corrective options remain available.
Enterprise 26/10/2023
A law firm comparison is most useful when each candidate receives the same description of the matter. This allows the client to compare scope, staffing, assumptions and cost rather than different packages presented under the same service label. Ask who will lead the matter and how specialist issues will be addressed. A business transaction may need coordinated corporate, employment and property advice, while a dispute may require a different team. International elements should be identified without assuming that every firm advises on foreign law.
Enterprise 01/07/2026
Review commercial arbitration in Vietnam for foreign businesses, including valid clauses, proceedings, evidence, interim relief and enforcement risks. Check the forum, language, scope and notice provisions before a dispute arises. Arbitration may offer flexibility, but cost, challenge grounds and the debtor's assets still matter when assessing the practical outcome.
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.
Foreigners 16/08/2022
An international couple may agree to divorce yet still face document and participation requirements. Before filing a joint application, confirm the Vietnamese court's jurisdiction and prepare clear arrangements for children, property and any unresolved financial obligations. 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.
Foreigners 11/11/2024
A foreigner preparing to register a marriage in Vietnam should obtain the document requirements for the couple's actual situation. Nationality, residence and previous marriages can affect the evidence needed. Start with identity and residence information and evidence of marital status. Explain any previous marriage, divorce or widowhood. Check the prescribed application and any required medical or other supporting evidence rather than treating an online list as universally mandatory.
Foreigners 16/08/2025
A marital property agreement can clarify financial arrangements, but it must be assessed alongside the rules governing the particular property. A foreign spouse's eligibility to own housing or hold another right cannot be created merely by agreement. List existing and proposed assets, the source of funds and any finance. Review whether each party can lawfully acquire the interest proposed. The agreement should accurately describe separate and shared interests rather than promise rights inconsistent with land or housing law.
Foreigners 11/06/2026
Understand criminal defence assistance for foreigners in Vietnam, from police contact and procedural status to documents, interpretation and lawful support. Seek clarity about the person's role in the procedure before important statements are made. Preserve relevant records and coordinate advice with interpretation, family communication and consular safeguards where appropriate.
Dispute 29/07/2023
Dispute lawyers assess legal rights, organise evidence and help clients compare negotiation, mediation, arbitration and litigation. Their role includes managing procedural risks and explaining the strengths and limitations of a claim. The discussion describes the legal work involved in a dispute rather than promising success. Clients can use it to prepare the contracts, correspondence and questions needed for an informed first discussion.
Dispute 25/07/2023
A criminal matter with foreign elements can raise questions about jurisdiction, language, evidence abroad and the person's procedural status. Nationality alone does not determine guilt or the outcome of a case. This guide focuses on practical issues for suspects, defendants, victims and their families. It replaces broad assumptions about foreign nationals with a case-specific approach to documents, communication and lawful representation.
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 28/09/2022
Land-use rights can raise issues of ownership, permitted use and the practical form of a settlement. The certificate is important, but acquisition history, separate-property evidence, financial obligations and the relevant land rules also need to be examined. 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.
Divorce 22/10/2022
The historical year in this article's title should not be used to select today's court or document requirements. A current case requires an updated jurisdiction check, a clear choice of procedure and documents reflecting the spouses' present circumstances. 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 11/11/2022
A final divorce judgment does not make every parenting arrangement permanent. A later request to change the direct caregiver requires a legal basis and evidence focused on the child's interests, rather than dissatisfaction with the original result alone. 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 26/08/2022
A joint divorce application should accurately reflect what both spouses have agreed. It needs more than matching signatures: the terms on children, support and financial matters must be clear enough for the court to examine their legality and fairness. 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 27/09/2022
A spouse living in another country can affect jurisdiction, service and the time needed to prepare a divorce. Establishing the overseas address and reviewing foreign-issued records early helps identify procedural difficulties before a petition is submitted. 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 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 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.
Investment 17/10/2026
Review industrial land and factory lease due diligence in Vietnam before paying a deposit, including lessor rights, site use, approvals and contract risks. Legal, technical and commercial reviews should support the same project. Verify the underlying rights and planned manufacturing use, then address document delivery, safety responsibilities, deposits and exit protections in the lease.
Investment 21/02/2024
Public-private partnership projects combine a public-service objective with a contractual investment structure. A foreign investor should assess the specific project and applicable PPP framework rather than treat the model as a general investment licence. Identify the public authority, proposed contract type, selection process and expected revenue source. Legal due diligence should examine land, approvals, environmental requirements and the relationship between project documents. Financial assumptions should be tested alongside the legal conditions.
