D’Andrea & Partners Legal Counsel is heavily invested in Vietnam with the aim to help Italian and foreign investors to succeed in this increasingly advanced economy, which is destined to acquire a more important role on the global scene thanks in no small part to the important free trade agreements concluded with the European Union (EVFTA) and the United Kingdom.
In order to achieve this goal, the Firm’s professionals have created a series of publications aiming to provide easy and comprehensive information for all companies interested in having commercial relationships or explore investment opportunities in this emerging market.
Specifically, our firm has published the following guides:
The FDI Guide – Foreign Investment in Vietnam, which provides practical advice related to all of the most relevant issues for foreign direct investment, such as the main forms of investment, protection of intellectual property rights, labor law, aspects of taxation matters as well as highlighting preferential policies and incentives available for foreign investors.
The IZV Guide – Industrial Zones in Vietnam, which provides a comparative overview of the various types of Industrial Zones in the country, highlighting the differences and the various advantages that can be obtained in relation to different geographical areas.
The CO Guide – Certificate of Origin “Made in Vietnam”, which sets out in a clear and accessible way the requirements provided by the Vietnamese Law to obtain the “Certificate of Origin” and the related process, both under national legislation and under existing international agreements, together with some practical examples, due to the growing importance of the “Made in Vietnam” label in the context of international trade and the country’s position as the center of trade in Southeast Asia.
The Guides will soon be available in all Italian newsstands in the single volume “Doing Business in Vietnam”, attached to the newspapers Milano Finanza and Italia Oggi, as well as on major online e-book platforms.
