Potential restriction on foreign investment in printing business

Under the commitments of Vietnam to the WTO (WTO Commitments), printing service is considered as a part of services incidental to manufacturing (CPC 88442). Accordingly, under the WTO Commitments,  from 11 January 2015, a foreign investor should be allowed to set up a wholly owned printing subsidiary in Vietnam.

However, under Decree 69/2014, a company involved in the printing of newspapers, statutory forms issued by the State authorities, anti-counterfeit stamps, and “financial invoices” must “have Vietnamese owners”. It is not clear if this means that (1) all owners of such printing company must be Vietnamese or (2) at least one owner of such printing company must be Vietnamese. In either case, the restriction under Decree 69/2014 seems to be contrary to the WTO Commitments.

Foreign investment in house/office moving services in Vietnam

In an official letter issued in March 2014, the Ministry of Planning and Investment (MPI) took the view that foreign investment in house/office moving services in Vietnam is possible subject to approval by the Ministry of Transportation and the Ministry of Industry and Trade. In particular, the MPI considers that:

  • House/office moving services could fall under CPC 51590 under CPC Classification for construction services;
  • There is no specific commitment by Vietnam to open the services under CPC 51590 to foreign investors under the WTO Commitments of Vietnam. That being said, Vietnam has undertook to open services under CPC 515 to WTO members in its WTO Commitments. Therefore, it is not clear why the MPI takes the view that CPC 51590 is not within the WTO Commitments regarding CPC 515; and
  • House/office moving services do belong to the restricted or conditional services under Decree 59/2006. Therefore, if the Ministry of Transportation and the Ministry of Industry and Trade agree then a foreign investor may invest in house/office moving services in Vietnam.

Handling Civil Claims In Vietnamese Criminal Proceedings

In criminal proceedings in Vietnam, civil claims (e.g., claims for compensation, repair of damaged property) often arise alongside criminal charges against criminals. The Criminal Procedure Code 2015 introduces the position of “civil claimants” (nguyên đơn dân sự) and “civil defendants” (bị đơn dân sự) to facilitate the handling of civil claims in Vietnamese criminal proceedings. However, other than creating these positions, the Criminal Procedure Code 2015 lacks detailed provisions on how these civil matters should be addressed in criminal proceedings. This legal gap, coupled with inconsistent judicial practices, makes the resolution of civil claims within criminal cases particularly complex and problematic. This post will explore the key challenges in resolving civil claims during criminal proceedings.

  • No clear procedures - Article 30 of the Criminal Procedure Code 2015 provides that civil matters in criminal cases are to be resolved during the adjudication of the criminal case. However, the Criminal Procedure Code 2015 provides no further instructions on the procedure for resolving civil claims within criminal proceedings. It remains unclear what procedural rules apply—whether the criminal court should follow its own process or adopt the procedures set out in the Civil Procedure Code 2015 to settle a civil claim during criminal proceedings. This uncertainty can lead to inconsistent judicial practices and procedural confusion.

  • Scope of civil claims - Article 64.1 of the Criminal Procedure Code 2015 defines a civil defendant as “an individual, agency, or organization that, as prescribed by law, is responsible for compensating for damages”. It appears from the definition of civil defendant that a civil claim during criminal proceedings only relates to the issue of compensation for damages. It is not clear whether other issues such as ownership of assets or return of illegal property could be covered in a civil claim during criminal proceedings. In addition, the court may also designate the person making or subjecting to a claim on civil issues which are not claim for damages to another position (e.g., person with related rights and obligations) during the proceedings.

Decree 125/2024: Licensing Uncertainty for Continuing Education Service Providers

Decree 125 of the Government dated 5 October 2024 (Decree 125/2024) introduces updated regulations for the education sector, including a requirement that a license must be obtained for establishing "other centres performing continuing education tasks" (trung tâm khác thực hiện nhiệm vụ giáo dục thường xuyên in Vietnamese and in the rest of this article, Other Continuing Education Centres). Crucially, the education law fails to clearly define these centres, creating significant ambiguity for education service providers, particularly those centres teaching K-12 subjects (e.g., math, literature).

First, the Education Law 2019 and Decree 125/2024 lack an explicit definition of Other Continuing Education Centres. Interpreting relevant provisions of the Education Law 2019, it appears that Other Continuing Education Centres are centres providing:

Vietnam Refines The Framework For Direct Power Purchase Agreement With Decree 57/2025

Following the issuance of the Law on Electricity 2024, Vietnam's Government has swiftly replaced its initial framework for Direct Power Purchase Agreements (DPPAs) under Decree 80/2024 by issuing Decree 57/2025 on 3 March 2025. Coming into effect immediately, Decree 57/2025 repeals Decree 80/2024, which had only been active since 3 July 2024. Decree 57/2025 largely maintains the two DPPA models introduced by Decree 80/2024  (1) via private line (Private DPPA) and (2) via the national grid (Grid-Connected DPPA), but introduces important changes impacting eligibility, pricing, and contractual details. Key changes include:

  • Flexible customer eligibility - Decree 57/2025 links customer eligibility (for initial participation and ongoing qualification) to a minimum consumption threshold (Minimum Take Amount) defined in the Wholesale Electricity Market Operation Regulations issued by the Ministry of Industry and Trade (MOIT). Decree 80/2024 instead used a fixed threshold (average ≥200,000 kWh/month). Accordingly, eligibility for participating in either DPPA model now depends on potentially dynamic wholesale market rules rather than a static figure, requiring ongoing monitoring of MOIT's regulations.

  • Stricter customer eligibility – A Large Customer in a DPPA arrangement which has been implemented for 12 months must ensure that in a calendar year, it has purchased from EVN the Minimum Take Amount for the 12 month periods ending on 31 October of the previous calendar year. Under Decree 80/2024, there is no requirement that the Minimum Take Amount must be purchased from EVN. It is not clear if this requirement will apply to a Private DPPA under which the customer purchases directly from the RE Generator.

Understanding Market Access Requirements For Uncommitted Businesses Under Investment Law 2020

Article 9 of the Investment Law 2020 provides for three kinds of business for foreign investors:

  • market-access-prohibited business lines (ngành, nghề chưa được tiếp cận thị trường in Vietnamese) (Prohibited Businesses);

  • business lines with conditional market access (ngành, nghề tiếp cận thị trường có điều kiện in Vietnamese) (Conditional Businesses); and

  • business lines which are not Conditional Businesses and Prohibited Businesses and are subject to the same market access treatment as domestic investors (Unrestricted Businesses).

However, Decree 31/2021 introduces another category of business lines being "business lines without market access commitment" (ngành, nghề Việt Nam chưa cam kết về tiếp cận thị trường in Vietnamese) (Uncommitted Business). It is unclear what the relationship between the Uncommitted Business and the Conditional Business under the Investment Law 2020 is.

Unclear Condition For Offshore Investors To Acquire Equity Originating From Land Use Right Contributions

Under Article 24.2 of the Investment Law 2020, offshore investors who intend to acquire equity in Vietnam-based companies must meet the land regulations on “conditions for receiving land use right” (LUR). However, the land law does not specify any conditions applicable to the offshore investors given that they are not a regulated land user.

Article 28.1(d) of the Land Law 2024 and its guiding provision, Article 9.1 of Decree 102/2024 only permit foreign-invested entities (FIEs), which can be established by offshore investors, to receive a transfer of equity being value of land use right originating from land allocation with land use fee payment or land lease with one-time rental payment to the State. Article 9.1 of Decree 102/2024 suggests that "equity being value of land use right " (vốn đầu tư là giá trị quyền sử dụng đất) (LUR Equity) is the equity in a company's charter capital created by contributing land use rights.

These provisions seem vague and can be interpreted differently, leading to varying conclusions.

Vietnamese Government’s Decree on Self-Consumption Rooftop Solar Power: A few comments (Part 2)

In light of our earlier analysis of Decree 135/2024, we have further observations regarding the Decree's lack of clarity. This post is written by Le Thanh Nhat.

Firstly, the Decree lacks a clear definition of “self-generation and self-consumption rooftop solar power” (Self-Consumption RSP). This is crucial as only surplus power from Self-Consumption RSP systems may be sold to EVN, Vietnam's national electricity provider. Unfortunately, Decree 135/2024 only offers the rather ambiguous definitions for “self-generation and self-consumption power” and “rooftop solar power” (which are arguably the two ‘components’ of Self-Consumption RSP) separately, without clarifying their integration.

Key Highlights Of Vietnam New Data Law

A new Data Law, passed in late November 2024 and set to take effect on 1 July 2025, focuses primarily on establishing a national general database and data centre for state use. However, it also introduces rules on digital data (data in the rest of this article) that concerns the private sector, such as, data products and services. The Government is also drafting three draft decrees detailing key issues under the Data Law, including Data-Related Products & Services Draft Decree, Core & Important Data Draft Decree and a Master Draft Decree.

This blog will discuss several key points under the Data Law and related draft decrees. This post is written by Ha Thanh Phuc and Trinh Phuong Thao.

1)          The police will review and supervise your data activities

The Ministry of Public Security (MPS) again is authorized to regulate all activities relating to data except for data under the Ministry of Defence. Accordingly, it seems that Vietnam considers data as security issue and violation of data activities could result in significant liabilities. This could raise significant compliance costs for businesses and companies in Vietnam if they want to be fully comply with unclear rules (see discussion below).

1)          Conditional Business Lines

Amendments to the Investment Law 2020 in late 2024 now require businesses involved in (i) data intermediary products and services, (ii) data analysis and synthesis, or (iii) data platform services to meet certain conditions. The Data Law suggests that:

a. data platform services may be restricted to state enterprises and public providers, potentially excluding private companies; and

b. only providers of data analysis and synthesis services that potentially harm national defence, national security, social order, safety, social ethics, or public health, which have been detailed under the Data-Related Products & Services Draft Decree, will be subject to these conditions.

Under the Data-Related Products & Services Draft Decree, businesses in these sectors are subject to strict requirements. Notably, all such businesses must maintain an escrow of at least 5 billion VND at a Vietnamese commercial bank to cover compensation and expenses in the event their licenses are revoked.

Dealing With Civil Liability In A Criminal Case In Vietnam – A Review Of Certain Practical Cases

In a criminal case involving a business, from time to time, the courts will need to decide on the civil liability of the criminal and other persons including those who are not aware of the crime relating to the case. For example, if A commits a fraud against B and uses the monies obtained from B to repay a debt between A and C who is not aware of A’s crime. In addition to deciding on whether A is guilty or not, the court will need to decide whether (1) requesting A to compensate B for the loss that B suffers or (2) requesting C to return the monies C receives from A to B (assuming that A is convicted). However, it appears that the court does not have a consistent approach. In this post, we discuss the approaches that the courts took in some significant criminal cases for the last decade.

Huyen Nhu Case – 2014

Huynh Thu Huyen Nhu was the head of a transaction office of Vietinbank (a large State-owned bank). Huyen Nhu has offered high interest rate (exceeding the interest rate cap provided by law) to various companies to convince them to deposit their monies with a branch of Vietinbank. After those companies made the deposit under instructions of Huyen Nhu, Huyen Nhu used fake documents and payment instruction to cause Vietinbank to transfer the deposit to Huyen Nhu’s designated accounts. Huyen Nhu used most of the amount obtained through her fraud to repay her debts to several individuals. The damages caused by Huyen Nhu is reported to be around VND 4000 billion (about US$ 200 million at such time), being largest bank fraud at the time.

In addition to convicting Huyen Nhu of the crime of committing fraud to appropriate properties (lừa đảo chiếm đoạt tài sản), the court also requested Huyen Nhu to compensate all the relevant companies for the losses that such companies suffer. The relevant companies took the view that they are not victim of Huyen Nhu’s fraudulent acts but Vietinbank is. Therefore, the relevant companies requested Vietinbank to repay them the deposits they made with Vietinbank. However, the court rejected such view and considered those companies to be victims of Huyen Nhu’s fraudulent acts. The court confiscated the amount of interests that Huyen Nhu paid her lenders but did not require these lenders to return the entire amount they received from Huyen Nhu.

Vietnamese Government’s Decree On Self-Consumption Rooftop Solar Power: A Few Comments

On 22 October 2024, the Government of Vietnam issued Decree 135/2024 on mechanisms and policies incentivising the development of “self-generation and self-consumption rooftop solar power” (Self-Consumption RSP). Unfortunately, there is still a great deal of ambiguity in the provisions of Decree 135/2024 that might create unnecessary confusion in applying and administering the implementation of Decree 135/2024. Please see our discussion of a few ambiguous provisions of Decree 135/2024 below.

1)       Potential risk from Decree 135/2024’s scope of application – Decree 135/2024 is said to only govern Self-Consumption RSP [systems] that are installed on the roof of construction works that were invested and constructed in strict compliance with law, including regulations on investment, construction, land, environment, safety, firefighting and fire prevention. As such, any noncompliance of the underlying building may cause the rooftop solar system to not be recognised as a Self-Consumption RSP system and therefore cannot enjoy the incentives policies under Decree 135/2024. It is unclear (i) whether mitigated noncompliance in the past (before the Self-Consumption RSP system is installed) would cause the building to be considered not “invested and constructed in strict compliance with law” and therefore prevents the installation of Self-Consumption RSP system on said building, and (i) whether noncompliance that arises after the Self-Consumption RSP system is installed and operated would affect the applicability of Decree 135/2024 to such system and what the outcome would be.

New Amendments To The Investment Law 2020

The National Assembly of Vietnam adopted a new law (the Amended Investment Law) to amend and supplement several provisions in Investment Law 2020. Most provisions of the Amended Investment Law take effect from 1 January 2025, except certain cases will take effect from 1 July 2025. In this post, we discuss some notable points in this Amended Investment Law.

Special Investment Procedures

The key point in this Amended Investment Law is the introduction of a special investment procedure (Special Procedure) which allows the eligible investors in certain high-tech sectors to obtain the investment registration certificate (IRC) and implement its project in a shorter time and reduces procedures, including waiver of various approvals and procedures.

The project utilizing the Special Procedure are exempt from various standard approvals and procedures, including IPA, technology appraisal, environmental impact assessment report, detail planning, construction permit and other approvals and permits in construction, fire fighting and prevention. The issued IRC serves as document for land lease or conversion of land use purpose. However, before commencing construction, investors are obliged to submit a report on the project's economic-technical construction investment, along with the corresponding appraisal report, to the relevant Authority.

This Special Procedure prevails relevant regulations under other laws enacted before 15 January 2025 when there is any difference between the Special Procedure and such other laws. For projects having IPA or IRC before the effective date of Amended Investment Law and eligible for utilizing the Special Procedure, the investor of such project can choose to apply the Special Procedure. The Special Procedure is still subject to further guidance from the Government and Ministry of Planning and Investment.

Representative Offices in Vietnam

Representative office (RO) is a suitable vehicle for a foreign investor who needs a limited commercial presence in Vietnam to serve as liaising office, conduct market researches, explore new opportunities and monitor contract performance. Legally, the RO does not have independent legal person status and is considered as part of the company that the RO represents in Vietnam. However, a RO licence should allow the RO to hire talents, offices and open bank accounts for spending in its own name.

The most drawback is that a RO cannot have its own business. At law, a RO is not allowed to enter into and perform revenue generating contracts. In practice, there is certain flexibility for a RO to enter into and perform contracts on behalf of the head-office. In addition, technically, a RO can only act as a RO of one legal person. Therefore, a RO may not be able to act as a RO for companies of the same group.
