I. Register a company in Vietnam: market access conditions and eligibility for Swiss investors
Before establishing a company in Vietnam, Swiss investors should assess the market access conditions applicable to their intended business activities. Under Vietnamese investment law, foreign investors are generally entitled to access the Vietnamese market under conditions applicable to domestic investors, except for sectors subject to restricted market access.
Depending on the relevant industry, market access conditions may include foreign ownership limitations, restrictions on investment forms, limitations on the scope of permitted activities or specific requirements concerning the investor's qualifications and business operations. These conditions must be assessed based on Vietnamese legislation and applicable international commitments.
II. Register a company in Vietnam: investment procedures and documentary requirements
After determining the applicable market access conditions, Swiss investors should assess whether their proposed investment project requires an Investment Registration Certificate or other investment-related approvals under Vietnamese law.
Under Vietnam's Investment Law 2025, effective from March 1, 2026, foreign investors may establish economic organizations before completing the procedure for issuance or amendment of an Investment Registration Certificate, provided that the applicable market access conditions are satisfied. Consequently, the order of investment registration and enterprise registration should be determined according to the specific requirements applicable to the proposed investment project.
Where an Investment Registration Certificate is required, the application dossier generally includes documents identifying the investor, evidence of the investor's legal status and financial capacity, information concerning the proposed investment project, and documents relating to the intended investment location.

III. Register a company in Vietnam: enterprise registration and corporate structure
Once the applicable investment-related requirements have been addressed, Swiss investors may proceed with enterprise registration in Vietnam. The choice of enterprise type should reflect the intended ownership structure, management arrangements and long-term investment objectives.
Common enterprise forms include a single-member limited liability company, a multi-member limited liability company and a joint stock company. Each structure involves different requirements concerning ownership, capital contributions, corporate governance and the rights and obligations of members or shareholders.
The enterprise registration dossier generally includes an application for enterprise registration, the company charter, information concerning the owner or members or shareholders, and documents identifying the legal representative.

IV. Register a company in Vietnam: post-incorporation compliance and business operations
Following incorporation, Swiss-invested companies must comply with the applicable legal obligations concerning capital contributions, tax administration, accounting, electronic invoicing and other corporate compliance requirements.
Depending on the investment structure, the company may also be required to open an appropriate investment capital account and conduct capital-related transactions in accordance with Vietnamese foreign exchange regulations. Investors should ensure that capital contributions are made within the applicable statutory deadlines and remain consistent with the registered capital arrangements.
For companies operating in regulated sectors, additional licenses or approvals may be required before commencing business activities. Manufacturing projects, for example, may involve environmental, construction and fire prevention requirements, depending on the project's location, scale and production activities.
