Tiếng ViệtLegal Accompanying Domestic and Foreign Investors
Vietnam is an attractive destination for foreign direct investment (FDI) thanks to its stable political environment, economic growth and attractive investment incentive policies. At the same time, more and more Vietnamese enterprises are expanding their investment in international markets. However, whether investing in or investing out, investors must face a complex legal system, diverse administrative procedures and potential risks.
To turn investment opportunities into real success and minimize risks, legal support from experts with knowledge of investment law is extremely necessary. GMC Consulting Centre is proud to provide comprehensive Investment Consulting Services, accompanying domestic and foreign investors throughout the investment process.
Who Needs Investment Consulting Services From GMC Consulting Centre?
- Foreign investors (Individuals and Organizations): Wishing to invest in Vietnam in different forms (establishing a 100% foreign-owned company, joint venture, contributing capital, buying shares…).
- Vietnamese investors (Individuals and Organizations): Having plans to invest in foreign markets.

Why is Legal Advice Important in Investment Activities?
- Understand the investment legal framework: The Investment Law, Enterprise Law and related specialized legal documents in Vietnam (or in the investing country) are very complicated and have many specific regulations for foreign investors. Lawyers will help you understand these regulations, avoiding unnecessary violations.
- Choose the most suitable form of investment: There are many different forms of investment (establishing a new enterprise, contributing capital, buying shares, BCC…). GMC Consulting Centre lawyers will analyze the advantages and disadvantages of each form based on your goals, industry and investment scale to make the optimal choice.
- Implement legal procedures quickly and effectively: The process of applying for an Investment Registration Certificate, Business Registration Certificate, and sub-licenses (business eligibility licenses) often takes a lot of time and effort. We will help you prepare complete and accurate documents and represent you to work with state agencies, speeding up the licensing process.
- Legal Due Diligence in M&A: For M&A deals, a thorough legal due diligence of the target company is extremely important to assess potential risks (on tax, labor, contracts, disputes, etc.) before making an investment decision.
- Drafting and negotiating investment contracts: Investment contracts (joint venture contracts, contracts for the purchase and sale of shares/capital contributions, BCC contracts, company charters, etc.) need to be drafted carefully to protect the interests of investors. Lawyers will assist you in drafting and negotiating important terms.
- Ensure compliance with the law after investment: After being licensed, investors must comply with many other legal obligations (periodic reports, changes to investment/business registration content…). We will advise you to properly fulfill these obligations.
