5. Can Investors Set Up a Company Through Capital Contribution? Is an Investment Registration Certificate Required?
Yes, investors can smartly set up a company through capital contribution. Here’s how:
- Step 1: Set up a company with 100% Vietnamese capital.
- Step 2: Transfer capital from Vietnamese shareholders/members to foreign investors.
| Task Details | Time |
|---|---|
| Prepare Documents for Enterprise Registration Certificate Application – Advise on the best company type – Draft and file documents for a 100% Vietnamese-owned company – Guide on foreign ownership ratios | 3-5 days |
| Draft Capital Transfer Document Prepare documents for foreign capital contribution, share purchase, or stake acquisition: – Contribution request form – Agreement on contribution/shares – Other case-specific papers | 1-2 days |
| Register with DPI – Submit documents directly – Respond to any additional requests (if needed) | 2-3 days |
| Confirm & Transfer Capital – Receive capital contribution confirmation – Transfer funds via investment account – Finalize transfer | 1-2 days |
| Update ERC – Register ERC changes with the Business Registration Office at DPI | 1-2 days |
Note: You must apply for an Investment Registration Certificate in Vietnam if:
- Your contribution pushes foreign ownership from 50% or less to over 50%.
- You’re contributing to a company already over 50% foreign-owned.
If neither applies, an IRC isn’t required.
Notes After Successfully Obtaining IRC
1. Avoid Fines for Late IRC Renewal
Companies face fines of 70-100 million VND if their Investment Registration Certificate in Vietnam expires without renewal (per Article 17, Decree 122/2021/NĐ-CP). CMT’s Investment registration certificate application service offers automatic deadline reminders and fast renewal in 7-10 working days – keeping you penalty-free and compliant!
2. Replace a Lost or Damaged Investment Registration Certificate
You must reapply for your Investment Registration Certificate in Vietnam if it’s lost or damaged. Without a valid IRC, you risk heavy fines or even business suspension during surprise government checks.
When You Need a Replacement:
- Certificate is lost or damaged.
- Online National System data doesn’t match your IRC.
- IRC details don’t match your filed registration info.
Reapplying is as complex as the initial process, requiring detailed explanations and various supporting documents depending on the case. Doing it yourself could take 1-2 months, stalling your business. CMT’s urgent reissuance service gets it done in 5-7 working days, ensuring your Vietnam investment process stays on track!
