I. Review of Licensing Eligibility Before Filing the Application
This is the most important step in the FDI application process. Dai Quang Minh Company reviews the following key information:
- Whether the investor is a foreign individual or foreign organization.
- The investor’s nationality or country of incorporation.
- The proposed business lines and business model.
- The foreign ownership ratio.
- Whether the company will be wholly foreign-owned or established as a joint venture.
- Charter capital and total investment capital.
- The proposed project location.
- Whether an Investment Policy Approval is required, if applicable.
- Additional licenses required after obtaining the IRC and ERC.
- Potential risks relating to market access conditions, capital requirements, location, financial documents, and specialized regulations.
If this step is overlooked, the investor may sign a lease agreement, prepare documents overseas, arrange for translation and consular legalization, or make business plans for Vietnam, only to discover later that the proposed business line is not open to foreign investment or that the proposed location is unsuitable.
II. Business Line, VSIC, CPC and Market Access Conditions Consultation
For a foreign-invested company, business lines are not simply the business codes stated on the Enterprise Registration Certificate. Each proposed business activity may need to be assessed from multiple perspectives, including:
- The project objectives stated in the Investment Registration Certificate (IRC).
- The business lines registered on the Enterprise Registration Certificate (ERC).
- The Vietnam Standard Industrial Classification (VSIC) codes.
- CPC codes, where the proposed service sector needs to be assessed against Vietnam’s international commitments.
- Market access conditions under the Law on Investment, Decree No. 96/2026/ND-CP, applicable international treaties, and specialized regulations.
- Additional licenses or sub-licenses where the proposed business line is subject to specific conditions.
Dai Quang Minh Company advises investors on how to formulate and register business lines based on the principle of ensuring that the registered business activities are sufficient to cover the investor’s intended operations while avoiding unnecessarily broad business lines that may increase licensing and assessment risks.
For sectors such as distribution, retail, e-commerce, logistics, education, healthcare, advertising, tourism, restaurants, management consulting, and information technology, accurately determining the appropriate business lines from the outset is particularly important and can significantly affect the feasibility and licensing process of the investment project.

IV. Preparation of the Investment Registration Certificate (IRC) Application
The Investment Registration Certificate (IRC) records the key information of an investment project. In many cases where a foreign investor establishes a new company in Vietnam, obtaining the IRC is a required step before proceeding with enterprise registration.
Dai Quang Minh Company provides support with:
- Preparing the application for implementation of the investment project.
- Preparing the investment project proposal.
- Advising on investment capital, charter capital, and the capital contribution schedule.

- Preparing legal documents of individual or institutional foreign investors.
- Guiding the translation, notarization, and consular legalization of foreign documents, where required.
- Submitting the application and monitoring its processing status.
- Working with the investment registration authority and providing explanations, amendments, or supplements to the application as requested.
V. Preparation of the Enterprise Registration Certificate (ERC) Application
After obtaining the IRC, the investor proceeds with enterprise registration to obtain the Enterprise Registration Certificate (ERC). The ERC officially records the establishment of the company, including its enterprise identification number, tax identification number, company name, registered head office address, charter capital, legal representative, and type of enterprise.
Dai Quang Minh Company provides support with:
- Advising on the selection of the appropriate corporate structure, including a single-member limited liability company, a multi-member limited liability company, or a joint stock company.
- Advising on the company name in Vietnamese, foreign language, and abbreviated form.
- Advising on the appointment of the legal representative.
- Drafting the company charter.
- Preparing the list of members or shareholders, where applicable.
- Preparing the enterprise registration application in accordance with applicable regulations.
- Submitting the enterprise registration application and obtaining the ERC.
- Guiding the investor through the necessary post-establishment procedures after obtaining the ERC.
VI. Guidance on Opening a DICA and Contributing Investment Capital
After obtaining the IRC and ERC, a foreign-invested company will generally need to open a Direct Investment Capital Account (DICA) at an authorized bank. This account is used to receive capital contributions from foreign investors and carry out capital-related transactions in accordance with foreign exchange management regulations.
Dai Quang Minh Company provides guidance on:
- Documents and procedures for opening a DICA at a bank.
- The appropriate currency for opening the account.
- The required payment details and transfer description for capital contributions.
- The applicable capital contribution deadline.
- The principles of ensuring that the correct investor makes the payment to the correct account, in the correct amount, with the correct transfer description.
