Doing business in Vietnam, there are few top tips foreign investor may take into consideration: 1/ Find a reliable partner A trustworthy Vietnamese partner or assistant can help you in dealing with most issue, from finding suppliers to estate matter. How to find a reliable partner: through British Embassy in Vietnam or recommendation from in the UK 18
19 IV. TIPS FOR DOING BUSINESS IN VIETNAM 2/ The language Learn the language create chance of becoming an insider rather than an outsider and make Vietnamese people feel you more locally. 3/ Build relationships, keep networking This is important factor not only in Vietnam but when you are there, you can see that most of the time your issue may be resolved by some one you know. 19
20 IV. TIPS FOR DOING BUSINESS IN VIETNAM 4/ Know Who and get the right person In Vietnam, in whatever matter there is always some one who makes decision. If you can get the right person, the job can be done with significant reduced time (such as from 5 days waiting time to 3 days). 5/ Offline payment methods Online is not new in Vietnam but people still prefer to pay when they get the goods/service or pay in cash rather than online payment. Between two companies, one has only online payment, other provides offline then most customers tend to use the second. 20
21 IV. TIPS FOR DOING BUSINESS IN VIETNAM 6/ Be ready to face with difficulties When foreigner investors come to Vietnam they may feel there are too many complicated and difficulties from the beginning such as: Construction Permits (if build a new facility), Getting Electricity (if there is not any existing), Paying Taxes (about 32 corporate tax payments to be made annually, cost around 872 hours to complete forms and procedures) However, when you are in the country and blend into the flow you can see that there are many ways to solve the issue.
