How We Support Business Ownership Transfer in Vietnam

We support businesses through the key stages of an ownership transfer, from transaction planning to registration updates and post-transfer requirements. 

Step 1

Review the Transfer Structure

We review the company type, current ownership, proposed buyer or transferee, transfer percentage and whether foreign investor rules apply.

Step 2

Conduct Due Diligence

We help identify key records to review, including company registration, tax position, licences, contracts, liabilities and ownership history.

Step 3

Prepare Transfer Documents

We support preparation and coordination of transfer agreements, resolutions, investor documents, Power of Attorney and other supporting records.

Step 4

Coordinate Authority Filings

We help coordinate required filings with the relevant registration or investment authorities, including updates to company or investor records where applicable.

Step 5

Complete Post-Transfer Updates

After approval or registration, we support next steps such as updated company records, bank coordination, tax-related updates and ongoing compliance actions.

Why Ownership Transfer Can Be a Practical Route in Vietnam

Vietnam continues to attract investors looking for established market access, operational continuity and long-term business presence. In some cases, transferring ownership of an existing company can be more efficient than setting up a new entity from the beginning, subject to proper due diligence and regulatory review.

Faster Market Entry

An ownership transfer may help investors take over an existing business structure instead of starting the full setup process from scratch.

Business Continuity

Ownership transfer can help preserve existing contracts, employees, licences and operations, subject to due diligence and regulatory review.

Compliance and Due Diligence

The transfer must be properly documented and registered with the relevant authorities. Investors should review company records, tax position, liabilities, licences and ownership history before completion.
