Overview
For the past two decades or so, Vietnam has paved the path for its implementation of its đổi mới ("renovation") policy and economic liberalization under the WTO. Alongside these economic reforms is the creation and development of Vietnam’s modern commercial legal system.
In the present context where the continued impact of the opening of Vietnam’s doors to foreign investors is experienced, INDOCHINA LEGAL has immersed itself, not only as a witness to, but as an active participant in Vietnam’s economic and legal evolution.
INDOCHINA LEGAL’s goal is to provide services seamlessly as a one-stop law firm, including business structuring, preparing application files for the establishment of representative offices or foreign invested entities, preparing and negotiating joint venture contracts, post-licensing matters, contract drafting, assisting in daily business transactions, and advising on corporate, commercial and financial matters.
We also represent our clients before various government bodies, both at local and central levels, to guide them through the entire regulatory and administrative process, attend to cultural sensitivities that may arise, and obtain required licenses, approvals and business registrations, in the best possible time frame.
