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needed for advice, while separating household business rules from enterprise procedures and avoiding reliance on superseded registration provisions.

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 10/11/2025
Foreign employers should assess Vietnam termination decisions under the applicable local framework rather than assume that an overseas policy can be used unchanged. The chosen legal ground and actual evidence determine the procedure to examine. Expiry, agreement, unilateral termination, redundancy and disciplinary dismissal are distinct. Review the contract, internal rules and evidence before deciding how to proceed. Paying notice does not automatically make an otherwise unsupported termination lawful.
Enterprise 25/01/2026
Avoid service agreement pitfalls by defining scope, deliverables, liability, payment, termination and practical remedies before a dispute arises. Use specific milestones and acceptance records that match the real service. A legal review should connect risk allocation with commercial expectations, evidence of completion and the consequences of delayed or defective performance.
Foreigners 17/01/2024
Labor disputes can concern pay, working time, workplace conditions, insurance or termination. The appropriate response depends on the claim and evidence, not simply on which party first raises a complaint. Review the employment contract and relevant policies and identify the specific obligation alleged to have been breached. For a payment claim, prepare a period-by-period calculation. For a conduct or termination issue, preserve the decisions, notices and supporting records.
Foreigners 13/11/2023
Sponsorship for a foreign visitor requires attention to both the inviting party and the person's purpose of entry. The sponsor should understand its role before submitting information or accepting responsibility for the visit. Confirm the organization's legal status, signing authority and relationship with the visitor. The stated purpose should match the supporting evidence and planned activities. Sponsorship for entry should not be confused with permission to employ the person.
Foreigners 27/06/2026
Review legal risk assessment for foreign investors in Vietnam, including market access, structure, contracts, premises, employment and enforcement. Identify material issues before capital or operational commitments become binding. The review should connect the actual business model with licensing, control rights, supporting records and realistic dispute remedies.
Foreigners 24/10/2026
Review foreign property ownership in Vietnam, including buyer eligibility, project restrictions, ownership terms, deposits and purchase document checks. Check the particular unit and seller before committing funds. The legal review should distinguish housing rights from land rights and connect ownership eligibility with contract, payment and registration requirements.
Dispute 26/03/2024
A business dispute can sometimes be resolved by agreement, but a formal remedy may also be necessary. Choosing a route requires attention to the contract, the dispute and the result that can realistically be implemented. Negotiation keeps the discussion with the parties, while mediation introduces a neutral facilitator. A proposed settlement should address authority to sign, payment or performance, defaults and enforcement. The legal effect of an agreement depends on its form and any available recognition procedure.
Dispute 21/08/2023
A civil dispute should be defined by the right or obligation in conflict and the remedy sought. Identifying the transaction, property or relationship involved helps determine the relevant evidence and procedure. The article introduces common dispute categories while distinguishing civil, commercial and labour claims. A clear chronology and document list help a lawyer assess the appropriate route and any urgent action required.
Dispute 28/11/2023
International investment disputes can arise under a contract, domestic law or an applicable investment treaty. A commercial disagreement with a local partner is different from a claim against a state under a treaty. Review the investor's nationality, ownership structure, investment documents and the measures complained of. Treaty protections and dispute mechanisms depend on the particular instrument and its conditions. An unfavorable business result alone does not establish a treaty breach.
Dispute 22/01/2026
Understand criminal defence support for foreign defendants in Vietnam, including procedural rights, interpretation, evidence and early case assessment. Clarify the person's procedural status and obtain advice before important statements or submissions. Defence strategy should be based on the allegation, evidence and applicable safeguards, with coordination for interpretation and consular contact where relevant.
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.
Divorce 27/09/2023
A divorce with foreign elements requires attention to both the family dispute and the cross-border procedure. Nationality, residence, a foreign marriage record or assets abroad can affect the questions that must be addressed before filing. Review where each spouse lives, how the marriage was registered and whether earlier proceedings exist. Foreign documents may require translation, authentication or a civil-status procedure depending on their origin and use. Do not assume that every international marriage follows the same preliminary steps.
Divorce 27/08/2022
An absent spouse does not automatically prevent divorce, but the court cannot ignore procedural safeguards. The applicant should establish the respondent's known location, provide reliable information for notice and distinguish absence from a formal declaration that a person is missing. 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 10/10/2022
Consensual divorce can be more focused when the spouses have genuinely resolved the relevant issues. Its duration still depends on document preparation, court review and participation, so a general estimate should not be treated as a guaranteed completion date. 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.
Investment 25/05/2026
Explore legal representation in Vietnam for clients abroad, including remote work, authorization, foreign documents and limits on personal attendance. Begin with a case review and distinguish advisory work from formal representation. Confirm which documents require originals or authentication and which decisions remain subject to the client's approval.
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 15/11/2025
Explore foreign investment structures in Vietnam, market access conditions, licensing, incentives and the legal risks international investors should review. A new company, acquisition and joint venture can create different approval and compliance obligations. Confirm business activities, capital arrangements, location and operational permissions before making binding commitments.
Investment 04/01/2024
BCC refers to a Business Cooperation Contract, while Build-Transfer-Operate is commonly abbreviated BTO. These are different concepts. The intended structure must be clarified before a legal assessment can be meaningful. A business cooperation contract sets out cooperation between investors without creating a new economic organization for that arrangement. A BTO infrastructure project involves a different public-private project structure. The parties, project and legal framework should be identified rather than combining the two descriptions.
