ToggleAccording to the Law on Investment 2020, foreign investors (FDI) have many options when investing in Vietnam through establishing businesses. The main forms include:
Establishment of a new economic organization
This is the most common form when foreign investors decide to invest directly in Vietnam. Investors can establish a one-member LLC, a LLC with two or more members, a joint stock company, or a partnership. In particular, the capital ownership level of foreign investors can be up to 100% depending on the investment field and Vietnamese legal regulations.
Contribute capital or purchase shares or capital contributions in Vietnamese enterprises
Foreign investors can choose to buy back capital contributions and shares of enterprises that have business registration licenses in Vietnam. This form is faster and more convenient than establishing a new business from scratch.
According to Article 25 of the Law on Investment 2020, investors can follow the following methods:
Business cooperation contract (BCC)
The form of a business cooperation contract (BCC) does not require the establishment of a new legal entity. According to Article 27 of the Law on Investment 2020, domestic and foreign investors can sign BCC contracts to cooperate in business and share profits and products. This form is flexible, suitable for short-term projects or does not require the establishment of an economic organization.
Implement investment projects
Foreign investors can carry out investment projects through establishing businesses or other forms of cooperation. This is especially common in sectors such as construction, energy, and real estate, where cooperation with stakeholders or the State is required.

When choosing the form of establishing FDI companies in Vietnam, investors need to note a number of important legal factors to ensure compliance with regulations:
Market access conditions for foreign investors
According to Article 9 of the Law on Investment 2020, there are industries that foreign investors cannot access or can only access under specific conditions. For example, some fields such as national security and defense and public services are sectors with limited access to foreign investors. Before investing, customers need to check the list of industries with limited market access.
Legal procedures for capital contribution
Foreign investors must open an investment capital account to carry out capital contribution transactions and transfer profits back to their country. Capital contributions must be made on time and according to the provisions of the Investment Registration Certificate (IRC). Otherwise, the investor will not be able to continue contributing capital after the term expires.
Investment reporting and monitoring
FDI enterprises in Vietnam must fulfill periodic investment reporting obligations to regulatory agencies. Businesses that do not comply with reporting regulations will be punished and may have difficulty adjusting their investment licenses.
