Doing Business in Vietnam: Vietnam Business Law for Foreign Investors and Entrepreneurs

Dr. Matthias Dühn, LL.M. (Georgetown) has been admitted as a German lawyer (Rechtsanwalt) since 2001 and licensed as a foreign registered lawyer with the Ministry of Justice in Vietnam since 2007. Dr. Dühn focuses his practice on foreign investment and market entry to Vietnam, corporate- and commercial law, complex contract drafting and negotiations, employment-related settlements and commercial litigation/arbitration.

The goal of this guidebook is to provide foreign investors and entrepreneurs with an overview of the legal framework for doing business in Vietnam. While it focuses on foreign direct investment and company formation, it also covers related legal matters such as taxation, HR and employment matters, intellectual property protection and the newly emerging field of protection of personal data in Vietnam.
