<Business Establishment >

Local corporation establishment

According to the law on foreign investment, there are generally three models used as forms of investment for foreign investors when entering Vietnam:

Limited liability corporation (Private)
Limited liability corporation (Jurisdical)
Joint corporation

Moreover, it is also possible to enter Vietnam in form of a representative office or a branch of a foreign company after obtaining permits from the City or Provincial People's Committee as well as related ministorial equivalent bodies to perform business activities with legal restrictions. Either of such forms needs an investment license granted from investment permit issuing authorities for the business establishment to be legal.

Representative offices

A foreign businness enterprise which intends to enter Vietnam can establish a representative office but its activities are limited to market surveys and customer reclamation, and other business activities such as commercial contract establishment, import-export of goods are not allowed to carry out (recruiting Vietnamese employees, opening bank accounts, renting offices or houses etc are permitted). It is necessary to obtain permission from local People's Committee before the establishment.
