Some Amendments to Business Registration As of October 10th, 2018 by Decree 108/2018/ND-CP

Decree 108/2018/ND-CP amending and supplementing a number of articles of Decree 78/2015/ND-CP effective from 10/10/2018, has stipulated new points of business registration.

The new decree stipulates clearly some contents on procedures of business registration, especially not needing to seal on the business registration documents and clarifying the power of attorney for individuals to establish an enterprise without notarization or certification in Article 1.1, 1.2 of Decree 108/2018/ND-CP.Since previously there were no regulations on this issue, competent authority required seal business registration documents and notarize or certify power of attorney to ensure valid documents, which caused difficulties when carrying out procedures. This new regulation will receive more support and solve practical problems.


Previously an enterprise may only establish its business locations within the provinces in Vietnam in which its headquarters or branches are located. It means that in case establishing another business location where headquarters or branches are not located, the enterprise must implement two procedures: establishing a branch and establishing a business location, but procedures and dossiers for establishment of branches are more complex than establishment of business locations. Now, enterprises are allowed to directly set up business locations in any province in Vietnam without headquarter or branch. It facilitates enterprises to expand scope of business, save expenses and reduce the workload for the enterprise.
