Business registration, sub-licenses, and investment permits
Operating a business in Vietnam requires careful navigation of a complex licensing and regulatory framework. Beyond basic business registration, many sectors require additional sub-licenses and investment permits, particularly for foreign-invested enterprises and regulated industries. Failure to obtain or maintain proper licenses may result in penalties, business suspension, or invalid operations.
CyraLaw Insight provides comprehensive advisory and implementation support for business registration, sub-licenses, and investment permits—ensuring a compliant and efficient setup from day one.
