This is precisely where a trusted legal partner becomes indispensable.
💡 Why Choose a Specialist?
We acknowledge your readiness to invest in a full-package, optimized service that guarantees precision, efficiency, and a rapid, compliant path to market. Your past experiences with less professional or budget-constrained services, which led to errors, reputational setbacks, and costly reworks, underscore your demand for a reputable, transparent, and proven partner.
You need a team that not only navigates the intricacies of Vietnamese law but also stands as a reliable, communicative ally in your strategic ventures.
🗺️ I. Pre-Investment Strategic Planning: Doing It Right From The Start
Before committing substantial capital, a thorough pre-investment assessment is paramount. Our role is to ensure you lay a robust legal and operational foundation, minimizing future risks and optimizing your investment structure.
📈 1. Market Entry & Sector Assessment
We provide in-depth investment consulting, evaluating the Vietnamese logistics sector's landscape. This includes analyzing specific industry segments (e.g., e-commerce logistics, cold chain, manufacturing supply chains) and identifying the most viable business models for foreign investors.
🏗️ 2. Structuring Your Investment
We assist in constructing the optimal capital and ownership structure for your FDI logistics company. This involves a meticulous analysis of legal barriers, licensing requirements specific to various logistics activities (freight forwarding, warehousing, customs brokerage, transportation), and advising on the most suitable legal entity (e.g., wholly foreign-owned enterprise, joint venture).
✅ Our Goal: Regulatory Alignment
Our goal is to ensure your structure aligns perfectly with Vietnamese regulations from day one, whether your base is in the U.S., Korea, Singapore, or within Vietnam's key economic hubs like Ho Chi Minh City, Hanoi, Da Nang, Bac Ninh, Binh Duong, or Hai Phong.
📊 3. Feasibility & Risk Analysis
Beyond legalities, we provide insights into practical considerations, assessing potential rungs for logistics operations, infrastructure availability, and market dynamics. This ensures you make informed decisions, mitigating potential pitfalls before capital deployment.
⚖️ II. Navigating Vietnam’s Intricate Legal Framework: Your Path to Compliance
Vietnamese corporate and investment law, especially for FDI, is dynamic and complex. Any misstep can lead to license rejections, significant delays, or even legal liabilities. Our commitment is to manage this complexity, ensuring your compliance and securing your licenses efficiently.
🏢 1. Comprehensive Company Formation (FDI Setup)
-
📄 Investment Registration Certificate (IRC) & Enterprise Registration Certificate (ERC):
These are the cornerstone documents. We meticulously prepare and submit all required applications, including the detailed investment project proposal. Our service ensures that your application is robust, complete, and fully compliant, avoiding common pitfalls that lead to rejections or protracted review periods.
-
📋 Specialized Logistics Licenses:
Depending on your defined services (e.g., multimodal transport, customs declaration, warehousing, freight forwarding), additional sector-specific licenses and permits are required. We expertly navigate these intricate licensing procedures, ensuring all necessary conditions are met and approvals are secured in a timely manner.
-
✅ Post-Establishment Formalities:
Beyond initial registration, we manage crucial follow-up steps such as corporate seal engraving, initial tax registration, opening corporate bank accounts, and guiding you through the first necessary filings, ensuring a truly end-to-end setup.
💰 2. Capital Formalization and Taxation
✍️ 3. Contractual and Stakeholder Agreements
We assist in drafting, reviewing, and legalizing crucial business contracts, shareholder agreements, and other internal legal documents. This proactive approach protects your interests, mitigates future disputes, and ensures all operational agreements align with Vietnamese law.
⚙️ III. Operationalizing for Seamlessness: Beyond Registration
Your goal is to focus on operations and growth, not administrative burdens. Our service extends beyond mere registration to ensure your company operates seamlessly from day one.
✨ 1. Minimizing Errors, Maximizing Efficiency
Our processes are designed to be virtually error-free, preventing the delays and reputational damage associated with incomplete or incorrect filings. We understand that "fast" is meaningless if it leads to errors or rework; thus, we prioritize accuracy and certainty.
🗣️ 2. Bilingual Communication and Local Expertise
🌐 Bridging the Language Gap
As a foreign investor, navigating government agencies and local business culture without local language proficiency can be daunting. We bridge this gap. Our team offers seamless bilingual (English-Vietnamese) communication, handling all administrative interactions, official document translations, and communications with authorities on your behalf. Our deep understanding of the Vietnamese business environment ensures culturally sensitive and effective engagement.
💻 3. Technology Integration & Transparency
📊 Stay Informed, Stay in Control
We embrace technology to provide you with unparalleled transparency. Beyond verbal commitments, we offer clear contracts, detailed roadmaps, real-time progress reports, and a dedicated dashboard. You'll have constant updates on your application status, responsible personnel, and upcoming milestones, ensuring you are always informed and in control. This proactive communication addresses your concern about being "abandoned" mid-way and ensures you receive timely support.
🛡️ IV. Your Partner in Protection: Trust and Accountability
We recognize that choosing a legal partner is an act of profound trust. You are entrusting us with a part of your reputation, financial security, and strategic plans in Vietnam. Our commitment is to earn and uphold that trust through unwavering support and transparent accountability.

We understand the urgency of your business plans. We provide realistic, clear timelines for each stage of the establishment process, committing to rapid processing without compromising on compliance or accuracy. We address your valid skepticism about "too fast" promises by ensuring our efficiency comes from expertise and streamlined processes, not shortcuts.

If challenges arise – whether a sudden regulatory change or an unexpected hurdle – you will never be left alone. We proactively identify potential issues, communicate them immediately, and provide strategic solutions. Our team is your steadfast companion, offering continuous support and guidance in this foreign environment.
