The Vietnamese authorities have issued a wide range of new laws and decrees effective from the start of 2021, impacting the way how investors undertake business in Vietnam and their corporate governance obligations. In this seminar, our experts will deliver an analysis of these important laws and regulations, present key changes to compliance requirements and discuss case studies and practical insights relevant for international and local companies active in Vietnam. These are the key legal changes you need to be aware of in 2021 to be compliant.
Key talking points:
- The New Labour Code and Decree 145, covering implications for employers and employees.
- Implementation of Tax Administration Law and Decree 126 and its newest provisions.
- Vietnam's new Law of Investment, aimed to simplify administrative procedures and conditional business lines, synchronise with international commitments in investment activities of which Vietnam is a member, and to better facilitate investment activities into Vietnam.
- Vietnam's new Enterprise Law, guiding the operations of companies and similar organisations in Vietnam.
- Decree 152 covering foreign individuals working in Vietnam and work permit provisions.
