When a company makes the decision to establish a presence abroad, especially in Vietnam, it faces numerous questions about the legal form of that presence under the laws of the foreign jurisdiction.
In Vietnam, the choice of legal form for that presence often depends largely on the following issues: (i) whether the legal form provides limited liability to the foreign company; (ii) the ease and expense of registration and compliance with other regulatory requirements for the given business; and (iii) the tax strategy pursued by the foreign company.
