Documents Required for Foreigners to Register Marriage in Vietnam

Foreigners 11/11/2024

A foreigner preparing to register a marriage in Vietnam should obtain the document requirements for the couple's actual situation.

How to Apply for a Vietnam Temporary Residence Card for Foreigners

Foreigners 25/10/2024

A temporary residence card is available only where the applicant meets an applicable category and its conditions. A wish to remain in Vietnam for a long period is not enough on its own.

The card should not be treated as a general work authorization; permission to work requires its own assessment.

Dossier and procedure for consensual divorce with foreigner

Dispute

Forms Of Dispute Resolution In Business

Forms Of Dispute Resolution In Business

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.

Civil Disputes Related To Property

Civil Disputes Related To Property

Dispute 23/10/2023

Property disputes may concern ownership, possession, a contract, compensation or an inheritance. These categories can overlap, but identifying the actual claim is necessary before selecting a forum or calculating the requested remedy. Explain what property is involved, how the claimant acquired an interest and what conduct is disputed. A boundary issue is different from an unpaid purchase price or a challenge to an inheritance. The documents should support the particular right claimed.

Divorce

Why Do You Need A Lawyer When Getting A Divorce?

Why Do You Need A Lawyer When Getting A Divorce?

Divorce 26/08/2022

Some divorce issues appear straightforward until disagreements about children, documents or assets emerge. A lawyer can help assess those risks, explain available options and prepare a consistent position, without promising that representation will secure a particular result. 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.

Advice on procedures for recognition of consensual divorce at Court

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.

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.

Regulations On Real Estate Business

Regulations On Real Estate Business

Investment 27/11/2023

Real estate business can involve development, sale, leasing, brokerage or management. The applicable requirements depend on the activity and property, so a single definition does not provide a complete compliance checklist. Review who will conduct the activity, the scope of its registration and licences, and the status of the property or project. Existing buildings and future property can raise different conditions. Marketing or taking funds before those conditions are assessed can create significant risk.

Employment Law Issues for Foreign Companies in Vietnam

Mergers and Acquisitions investment - Legal Investment Consulting Services

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.
