Co-host

Hello, Mr. Thái, and dear listeners of The Lawyers Talk. I am Huỳnh Kim Thành, and I'll be your co-host for today's podcast.

When working at BLawyers Vietnam, I often receive questions from clients about what is an investor under Vietnamese law.

So, before we dive into the main content, I’d like to take a moment to share the definition of an investor according to Vietnamese law.

According to Clause 18, article 3 of the Investment Law 2020, an investor is an organization or individual who carries out business investment activities, including domestic investors, foreign investors, and foreign-invested business organizations.

Subsequently, Clause 19 of this article defines a foreign investor as follows: for individuals, it refers to those holding foreign nationality; for organizations, it refers to those established under foreign law that conduct business investment activities in Vietnam.

Host

In addition to the concepts of domestic investors and foreign investors, I noticed that Mr. Thành mentioned another term that I would like to clarify further. That term is the concept of foreign-invested business organizations.

First of all, I would like to share with the listeners the concept of a business organizations. A business organization is an organization established and operating in accordance with Vietnamese laws, including enterprises, cooperatives, cooperative unions, and other organizations that carry out business and investment activities.

Accordingly, a foreign-invested business organization is an organization whose members or shareholders are foreign investors.

So, when you engage with clients who are foreign investors looking to invest in Vietnam, Mr. Thành, how would you advise them on the best way to proceed with their investments in Vietnam?...
