Changes in policy direction and regulatory requirements are increasingly shaping the way Vietnamese enterprises undertake outbound investment.

As Vietnamese enterprises increasingly expand into international markets, the policy and regulatory framework governing outbound investment continues to evolve.

  • Key regulatory updates, including requirements on capital, investment conditions, and compliance obligations
