Seek Advice on Strategic Direction before Starting Your Investment

There are many complexities and restrictions when it comes to investing or conducting business in Vietnam; however, once these initial startup difficulties are overcome, doing business in Vietnam can be very profitable.  What initially may seem a good direction to follow, could be less effective than another approach suggested by Star from long experience in practically implementing the investment strategies of numerous clients.

Timely advice by the experienced team at Star could save the client a lot of time, money and frustration. The client should always contact Star for initial strategic investment advice regarding the best direction to take.

For example, is it better to open a foreign-owned entity or one held by Vietnamese nominee owners?  Is a company or a representative office the best vehicle to use and why?  What are the restrictions or complications that may apply to investing in various fields of business in Vietnam?  Why do some companies choose to invest via a Business Cooperation Contract rather than incorporate a new company? We will make all this crystal clear.
