Finally, we will talk about how we can assist you with your company&#8217;s secretarial and tax services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"font-size:25px\">Eligibility for setting up a representative office in Vietnam<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Foreign enterprises that have been in existence for at least one year and have overseas operations are eligible to&nbsp;establish&nbsp;a Representative Office in Vietnam.&nbsp;Under Vietnam\u2019s framework for&nbsp;<strong>representative offices of foreign traders<\/strong>&nbsp;(commonly implemented under Government Decree No. 07\/2016\/ND-CP), a foreign trader may be licensed to&nbsp;establish&nbsp;an RO if it meets&nbsp;<strong>all<\/strong>&nbsp;key conditions, including:&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The foreign trader is legally established\/registered under the law of a country\/territory that is a party to a treaty to which Vietnam is a contracting\u00a0party,\u00a0or\u00a0is otherwise recognized under the law of that country\/territory.\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>\u00a0The foreign trader has been\u00a0operating\u00a0for at least\u00a001 year\u00a0since establishment\/business registration.\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>If the foreign trader\u2019s business registration (or equivalent)\u00a0states\u00a0a term\/validity period, the remaining term must be at least\u00a001 year\u00a0from the application submission date.\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The proposed RO activities must align with Vietnam\u2019s market-access commitments in relevant treaties;\u00a0otherwise, the establishment may\u00a0require\u00a0approval from the competent line ministry.\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The RO\u2019s purpose should remain non-revenue-generating in Vietnam (e.g., liaison, market research, and promotion), consistent with the legal scope for representative offices.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"font-size:25px\">What are a Representative Office&#8217;s Rights and Obligations in Vietnam?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You are not permitted to engage in direct commercial activity as a Vietnam-based Representative Office. Instead, the office operates as a liaison for its parent corporation, conducting market research, attracting clients, and configuring projects.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The RO can rent premises and make purchases for general charges, office equipment, and office supplies from its office. Similarly, if the parent business is no longer able to sponsor the RO, it can swiftly close it and notify the\u00a0appropriate authorities.<strong>\u00a0<\/strong>Any shutdown\/termination must follow the statutory process with the\u00a0licensing authority, and the foreign trader must settle obligations (including outstanding taxes, contracts, debts, and employees\u2019 lawful benefits)\u00a0in accordance with\u00a0Vietnamese law.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"font-size:25px\">What is the procedure and time frame for licensing?&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The licensing process takes around 7 working days from the date the licensing authority receives a complete and valid dossier (except cases requiring consultation with a line ministry, which can extend the statutory timeline).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The competent licensing authority depends on the RO\u2019s location:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Provincial Department of Industry and Trade (DOIT) for ROs located outside industrial parks\/export processing zones\/economic zones\/hi-tech parks; or<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The relevant Management Board for ROs located within those zones\/parks (unless a specialized law applies).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The application contains:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>an application form for establishment of the RO (in the form prescribed by the Ministry of Industry and Trade)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>a legalized copy of letter of authorization from the head office<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>a legalized copy of the parent company\u2019s business registration certificate.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>an Audited financial report or Confirmation on tax\/financial obligations implementation for the previous year or the like is mandatory.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>parent company\u2019s articles of incorporation or equivalent documents (not mandatory)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Decision of appointing Chief of Rep Office<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>dentification\/passport copy of the Head\/Chief Representative<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Documents proving the lawful right to use the proposed RO location (e.g., lease\/MOU and related location documents as required)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Foreign-issued documents typically require Vietnamese translation (with certification as required) and, for certain documents (notably the parent\u2019s business registration\/equivalent), consular legalization\/certification in line with Vietnamese requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"font-size:25px\">What are the requirements for Post-license Procedure?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>FFollowing the acquisition of the RO license, the RO must undertake the following:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To complete the registration process, the RO&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/premiatnc.com\/vn\/taxation-system\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">must register for a tax code&nbsp;<\/a>with the&nbsp;appropriate state&nbsp;agencies.&nbsp;While an RO&nbsp;generally does&nbsp;not conduct revenue-generating activities, it commonly still needs a tax code for employer-related obligations (e.g., personal income tax withholding\/filings for employees) and other administrative interactions where&nbsp;required. (Tax registrations and ongoing filings depend on the RO\u2019s specific facts and staffing model.)&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/premiatnc.com\/vn\/service\/corporate-bank-account-opening\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Opening a Bank Account<\/a>: The RO can undertake transactions and cash handling with banks licensed to&nbsp;operate&nbsp;in Vietnam and&nbsp;retain&nbsp;accounts in VND.&nbsp;Banks typically request the RO establishment license, identification\/authority documents for the Head\/Chief Representative, proof of address\/lease, and other KYC documentation depending on the bank\u2019s compliance policies.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tax and Reporting responsibilities: Because the RO may incur tax liabilities, it must register for tax responsibilities, including personal income tax for RO workers. Monthly and quarterly reporting requirements are also&nbsp;required.&nbsp;An RO\u2019s recurring compliance usually focuses on (i)&nbsp;employment-related&nbsp;obligations (where it employs staff) and (ii) the&nbsp;mandatory annual operations report&nbsp;to the licensing authority (see NEW SECTION below).&nbsp;UPDATED:&nbsp;Whether monthly\/quarterly tax filings apply depends on registrations and actual activities; this should be confirmed based on the RO\u2019s circumstances and current tax authority practice.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button aligncenter\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-background wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/premiatnc.channel.io\/\" style=\"background-color:#07324b\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Contact Us for Vietnam Taxation Service!<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"font-size:25px\">What are the costs of establishing a Vietnam Representative Office?&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Registration fees, office leasing prices, and other expenses linked to obtaining local licenses and permits are all part of the costs of establishing a Representative Office in Vietnam.

This article focuses on&nbsp;representative offices of foreign traders&nbsp;under Vietnam\u2019s commercial framework (commonly implemented via Government Decree No. 07\/2016\/ND-CP, issued under the Law on Commerce).&nbsp;Where a specialized law governs&nbsp;representative offices for a particular sector, those sector-specific rules can override or&nbsp;modify&nbsp;the general framework (including the competent authority, dossier requirements, and&nbsp;permitted&nbsp;scope).&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Under the general framework, an RO is designed for&nbsp;market-entry support, not revenue generation. The RO\u2019s lawful operating contents are described as: acting as a&nbsp;liaison office,&nbsp;studying the market, and&nbsp;promoting business opportunities&nbsp;of the foreign trader it represents.&nbsp;&nbsp;<br>Common permitted activities therefore include:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>market research, competitor\/customer analysis, and feasibility work;\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>liaison\/relationship building with partners and stakeholders;\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>promotion and business development support (within the RO\u2019s\u00a0permitted\u00a0scope);\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>coordination and communications support for the parent company.\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>What an RO should avoid is anything that resembles&nbsp;conducting business in Vietnam&nbsp;in its own name\u2014especially activities that can be viewed as profit-making or as direct provision of services locally. Even if an RO does not issue invoices or collect money, acting as the contracting party for commercial contracts, collecting payments, or delivering fee-based services can create regulatory exposure and may trigger tax scrutiny. A practical control is to ensure: (i) commercial contracts and revenue remain with the&nbsp;parent company, and (ii) RO staff roles, signing authority, and approval workflows are documented so that the RO stays within its permitted \u201cliaison\/research\/promotion\u201d scope.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-faqs\" style=\"font-size:25px\"><strong>License validity, annual reporting, and high-risk compliance pitfalls<\/strong>\u00a0<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>License validity and renewals.<\/strong>&nbsp;An RO establishment license has a validity period of&nbsp;up to five (05) years, and it must&nbsp;not exceed&nbsp;the remaining validity term of the parent company\u2019s business registration\/equivalent document if that document&nbsp;states&nbsp;a validity term. Licenses may be extended under the applicable procedure\u2014companies should plan early to avoid expiry gaps.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Annual operations report (mandatory).<\/strong>&nbsp;Each year,&nbsp;before 30 January, the RO must send (typically by post, using the prescribed form) a report on its operations in the preceding year to the licensing authority. Failure to report can create serious licensing risk\u2014under the Decree framework, repeated non-reporting can be a basis for license revocation.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;<strong>Location and nameplate\/signage.<\/strong>&nbsp;The RO must&nbsp;maintain&nbsp;a lawful office location consistent with local requirements, and it should&nbsp;retain&nbsp;documentation proving&nbsp;its&nbsp;right to use the premises. Vietnam\u2019s rules also require the RO to put up a&nbsp;nameplate&nbsp;at its office and follow naming\/display requirements for transaction documents and publications.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Head\/Chief Representative controls.<\/strong>&nbsp;The Head\/Chief Representative is responsible within the scope of authorization and must arrange written authorization when absent from Vietnam (so the RO can continue lawful administration). The rules also restrict certain concurrent roles for the Head\/Chief Representative to manage conflicts and governance risk.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Termination is not just \u201cnotification.\u201d<\/strong>&nbsp;When closing an RO, the foreign trader must follow the formal termination process with the licensing authority and ensure settlement of obligations (contracts, debts, employees\u2019 benefits, and outstanding taxes where applicable). Building a closure checklist early helps prevent delays and lingering compliance exposure.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-faqs\" style=\"font-size:25px\">FAQs<\/h2>\n\n\n\t\t<div class=\"wp-faq-schema-wrap wp-faq-schema-accordion\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-faq-schema-items\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3>Q: Is it necessary to hire local personnel for my Vietnam Representative Office?<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>A: Yes, hiring local workers for a Representative Office in Vietnam is essential. The number of employees is not defined, but it should be sufficient to carry out the Representative Office's non-profit activities. It is generally not a blanket legal requirement to hire local personnel simply because you have an RO. The parent company decides the RO\u2019s personnel structure. In practice, many ROs hire Vietnamese staff for operational effectiveness, and any employment (Vietnamese or foreign) must comply with Vietnam labor and immigration requirements. <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3>Q: What are the Vietnam Representative Office&#039;s reporting and tax obligations?<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>A: A Representative Office in Vietnam is required to submit annual reports to relevant government entities, including tax returns and financial statements. Annual reporting on the activities of the Representative Office is mandatory and must be submitted before January 30 each year, and PIT filings for all employees are mandatory.  The Representative Office is also subject to local income tax on any money generated in Vietnam through non-profit operations. To obey these regulations, you must use a professional taxation counsel. Under the RO framework, the RO must submit an annual operations report to the licensing authority before 30 January each year (using the prescribed form).  An RO\u2019s tax compliance is typically centered on employment-related obligations where it has staff (e.g., personal income tax withholding\/filings), plus any other obligations that apply based on its actual activities and registrations. UPDATED: Since an RO is generally not intended to generate revenue in Vietnam, conducting activities beyond its permitted scope can create regulatory and tax exposure\u2014professional advice is recommended. <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3>Q: Can I transform my Representative Office in Vietnam into a subsidiary or other sort of entity?<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>A: Yes, a Representative Office can be converted into a subsidiary or other sort of organization in Vietnam.  A \u201cdirect conversion\u201d is not necessarily an automatic process under the RO licensing framework. In practice, companies often establish a new entity (e.g., an FDI company) and then decide whether to maintain the RO for permitted liaison functions or proceed to terminate the RO once the new entity is operational. The best approach depends on your industry and intended activities. <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3>Q: Do I need to hire a professional to set up my Vietnam Representative Office?<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>A: While it is not compulsory to hire a professional service provider, it is highly advised that you do so. These specialists are competent and knowledgeable in company secretarial and tax services. These professionals may verify compliance with local rules, offer advice on different areas of the Representative Office setup process, and provide continuing support to ensure the Representative Office in Vietnam runs well.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/api.whatsapp.com\/send\/?phone=85256281754&amp;text&amp;app_absent=0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"148\" src=\"https:\/\/premiatnc.com\/vn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/BTN-4-1-1024x148.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-89399\" srcset=\"https:\/\/premiatnc.com\/vn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/BTN-4-1-1024x148.png 1024w, https:\/\/premiatnc.com\/vn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/BTN-4-1-300x43.png 300w, https:\/\/premiatnc.com\/vn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/BTN-4-1-768x111.png 768w, https:\/\/premiatnc.com\/vn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/BTN-4-1-1536x222.png 1536w, https:\/\/premiatnc.com\/vn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/BTN-4-1-2048x296.png 2048w, https:\/\/premiatnc.com\/vn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/BTN-4-1.png 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><span class=\"span-reading-time rt-reading-time\" style=\"display: block;\"><span class=\"rt-label rt-prefix\">Reading Time: <\/span> <span class=\"rt-time\"> 6<\/span> <span class=\"rt-label rt-postfix\">minutes<\/span><\/span>If you&#8217;re thinking about growing your business in Vietnam, establishing a Representative Office (RO) can be a wonderful place to start.
