Vietnam Investment Law 2014/Enterprise Law 2014 – Temporary guidance by Hanoi licensing authorities

The Investment Law 2014 and the Enterprise Law 2014 will take effect very soon on 1 July 2015. However, the Government has not issued any implementing Decrees or Circulars which are necessary for the actual implementation of the Investment Law 2014 and the Enterprise Law 2014. This is unfortunate as the lack of proper implementing Decrees and Circulars may affect the operations of many companies and investors.
