Compliance & Legal

Visas, Licenses, Taxes & Everything in Between

Vietnam runs on paperwork. Get one form wrong and everything waits: your opening, your hires, your first sale. We handle it all: visas, work permits and residence cards for your team, the licenses your industry needs, and trademarks that protect your brand. We keep your books, payroll and tax filings in order too, so you can focus on the business.

Compliance from Your First Visa to Your Annual Tax Return

Use one service or hand us all of it. We tell you what applies to your business, prepare the documents and follow each application through to approval.

Your people

Visas, Work Permits & Residence Cards

Your people can't start work without the right papers. We file them for you: investor visas, work permits, temporary residence cards and family visas, plus renewals and visa changes for companies and individuals.

  • Investor visas and work permits
  • Temporary residence cards (TRC)
  • Family visas, renewals and conversions

Best forCompanies relocating foreign managers or staff, and founders moving to Vietnam.

For exampleA founder who arrived on a tourist visa switches to an investor visa once the company is registered.

Your business

Business Licenses & Permits

Some industries need extra approval before they can trade. We find out which licenses apply to you, from trading licenses to food hygiene, e‑commerce and construction permits, and secure them so you open on time and avoid fines.

  • Documentation check
  • Trading and retail licenses
  • Food hygiene, e‑commerce and construction permits

Best forForeign-owned companies in retail, food and drink, e‑commerce, construction and other licensed sectors.

For exampleA fashion retailer gets the trading license and retail permit it needs to open a flagship store in Saigon.

Your brand

Trademarks & Intellectual Property

Protect your brand before someone else claims it. We register your trademarks, copyrights and patents in Vietnam, watch for copies and help you act if someone infringes.

  • Trademark, copyright and patent registration
  • Monitoring for copies and infringements
  • Support with enforcement

Best forBrands, software firms and manufacturers bringing names, products or designs to Vietnam.

For exampleA fashion brand registers its name and logo as trademarks before its first store opens.
