| | | | We examine the reasons authorities may temporarily restrict individuals from exiting Vietnam due to tax debts and outline key steps to help avoid these situations. | | | | | Vietnam’s Decree 115 establishes a clear legal framework for investor selection in land-use projects, with a particular focus on greenfield power developments. Aligned with the government’s priority to advance the energy sector, the decree is anticipated to drive competitive bidding processes for power project investments, attracting significant interest from both investors and developers. | | | | | A recently published report on Vietnam’s top 500 enterprises (VNR500) and 500 largest private companies in 2024 showcases which industries are among key contributors to the country’s economic growth, suggesting improved prospects for businesses. Leading industries that saw significant revenue growth in 2023 include finance (up by 23.1%), mechanical (16.1%), food, beverage, and tobacco (6.6%), and construction (6.4%). | | | | | Vietnam recently removed a major barrier to foreign investor access in its stock market by eliminating the 100-percent pre-funding requirement for transactions. Following this regulatory change, foreign-held securities trading accounts saw a steady increase, reflecting the market’s positive response to the removal of this significant constraint. | | | | | Vietnam’s robust agri-export growth in 2024 highlights significant investment opportunities in agri-processing, AgriTech, cold chain logistics, digital transformation, and sustainable production zones, driven by rising global demand and strategic government support. |
