How to Distinguish between Deposit and Advance Payment?

In commercial transactions, it is very common for one party to give the other party an amount of money before the contract being performed. Should this amount be considered as deposit or advance payment?

 


How to Distinguish between Deposit and Advance Payment

 Deposit is one of security measures for the performance of contract obligations. According to regulation of Civil Code 2015, deposit is an act whereby one party (hereinafter referred to as the depositor) gives to other party (hereinafter referred to as the depositary) a sum of money or precious metals, gemstones or other valuable things (hereinafter referred to as the deposited property) for a period of time as security for the entering into or performance of a contract.

Upon a contract being entered into or performed, any deposited property shall be returned to the depositor, or deducted from the amount of payment obligation. If the depositor refuses to enter into or perform the contract, the deposited property shall belong to the depositary. In case the depositary refuses to enter into or perform the contract, the depositary must return the deposited property and pay an amount equivalent to the value of the deposited property to the depositor, unless otherwise agreed.

It can be seen that the purpose of deposit is to ensure the entering into or performance of a contract. Due to the fact that its nature is a security measure for the performance of contract obligations, sanction is set in regulation of deposit in case one party refuses to perform the agreement.

In practice, the advance payment can be understood that the obligor pays the obligee a sum of money in advance and this amount is regarded as in-advance performance of a payment obligation. As the nature of the advance is not a security measure for the performance of contract obligations, there is no fine rising from the advance if one party refuses to perform the agreement. Further, when a contracting party gives to the other party a sum of money, which is not clearly identified by the parties as a deposit or an advance, such amount shall be considered an advance payment.

It is important to distinguish the difference between deposit and advance payment to avoid potential disputes in performance the contract or consult with dispute resolution lawyers in Vietnam at early stage of the dispute for proper actions.

Disputes could arise in failure to collect the payment from debtor in sales agreement, construction contract disputes between investor and contractor, labour dispute between employer and employee, insurance disputes between ship owner and insurance company.

Contract disputes must satisfy the following factors:

First, there is a contract between the parties. The contract would be in different for ms therefore, there is a need to clearly define if the contractual relationship has been formed or not.

Second, there is a breach of obligations or duties that are in violation of a party in the contractual relationship.

Third, there is disagreement between the parties about the handling of infringement or the consequences of such violations.

It should be noted, the contract disputes arise from the breach. However, not all breaches of contract also lead to disputes.

How to settle the contract disputes in Vietnam?

Contractual disputes can be resolved by the following methods:

The negotiation is without the presence of third parties. However, if the contract dispute lawyers in Vietnam would be involved during the negotiation process, at the role of representing or advising, counseling, then the negotiations tend to be more effective and parties would reach agreement.

Mediation is one of the options for disputing parties to end the conflict. Mediation is different from negotiating with the intervention of a third party. Mediator will help parties to achieve agreement and resolve conflict.

Court or arbitration: The settlement of the dispute in court would take time. The court’s ruling can be appealed.

Dispute Settlement in International Trade

In international trade, when drafting international contracts, the parties usually focus on the terms of payment and expense but little attention to terms of dispute settlement. Thus, the parties should be aware that the disagreements and disputes can arise at any time. Therefore, in the process of concluding an international economic agreement, the parties should note the provisions on the selection methods of dispute settlement if a dispute occurs. Currently, there are 4 dispute resolution methods in international trade as follows: negotiation, mediation, commercial arbitration and court.

 


Dispute Law Firm in Vietnam

Negotiation

Negotiation is a settlement method which is usually applied in international dispute settlement. In particular, the parties discuss together, struggle, compromise and agree to settle the dispute. The result of the negotiation is that the dispute could be resolve or not. Negotiation is conducted in two ways: The two parties directly meet each other to discuss and deal or one party submit complaint to the other party and the other party answers the complaint.

Mediation

Mediation is the method of resolving dispute between the parties through the role of a third party. Mediation can be accomplished by two ways: One is that the parties agree with each other about mediation, the mediator will be designated and conduct the mediation without following any rules of mediation. The second way is that the parties agree to conduct the mediation under rules of a professional organization or one specific arbitration institution, such as mediation rules of the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC).

Commercial arbitration

Arbitration is a method of dispute settlement arising in trade activities that are agreed between the parties and carried out according to the order and proceedings. Presently, there are kinds of arbitration such as: ad hoc arbitration and permanent arbitration.

Court

The 3 dispute settlement methods above are voluntary in nature. They are different from the dispute settlement in accordance with judicial procedures at court. The settlement of dispute by court is to resolve dispute through the activities of the State tribunals. Therefore, litigants in the dispute are often considered as a final solution to protect their legitimate interests. Especially, when there is a conflict, the parties will choose the form of trade negotiation or mediation rather than commercial arbitration or court.

Fundamental Contract Breaches in Law on Commerce 2005 and CISG 1980

What Are Fundamental Contract Breaches in Law on Commerce 2005 and CISG 1980?

Fundamental breach is a type of contract breach, in which the Law on Commerce 2005 defines that a breach of contract committed by one of the parties is fundamental if it causes damage to the other party to the extent that the other party fails to achieve purpose of contract conclusion. The significant factor that makes the difference between the fundamental and minor breach of contract is the materiality.

 


Contract Dispute Lawyers in Vietnam

Fundamental breach is an important foundation for the imposition of trade remedies such as temporary suspension of performance, suspension of performance or contract cancellation when the contract has no specific agreement. Nonetheless, Law on Commerce 2005 does not provide further guidance on fundamental breach. Court or arbitrator has a right to determine whether a breach is fundamental on a case-by-case basis. 

As set forth in CISG 1980, a breach of contract committed by one of the parties is fundamental if it results in such detriment to the other party as substantially to deprive him of what he is entitled to expect under the contract, unless the party in breach did not foresee and a reasonable person of the same kind in the same circumstances would not have foreseen such a result. CISG also does not provide specific provisions to explain fundamental breach in details. Nonetheless, it can be deemed that in order to constitute a fundamental breach, three following factors need to be met: (i) a breach is made, (ii) detriment resulted from such breach substantially deprives him of what he is entitled to expect under the contract, and (iii) the breach can be foreseen.

The difference between constitution of a fundamental breach under CIGS 19080 and Law on Commerce 2005 is that: a breach cannot be treated as under CISG 1980 in case the breaching party did not foresee and a reasonable person of the same kind in the same circumstances would not have foreseen such a result. Law on Commerce 2005 does not stipulate factor (iii) as mentioned herein but requires that (1) a breach is made and (2) damage resulted from such breach causes other party failed to achieve its purpose of contract conclusion to constitute a fundamental breach. The aggrieved party accordingly has a right to impose remedies such as temporary suspension of performance, suspension of performance or contract cancellation.

The consequence factor of fundamental breach in Law on Commerce 2005 is similar to CIGS 1980. In case the purchaser is aggrieved party, what he/she is entitled to expect under the contract is right to receive the goods, to own the goods and to sell to other parties to earn profits or manufacture products or other ways he/she can make a profit. In case the seller is aggrieved party, what he/she is entitled to expect under the contract is right to receive payments, which is profits he/she may earn. The purpose of contract conclusion as provided in Law on Commerce 2005 is same as what the purchaser and seller are entitled to expect under the contract as stipulated in CISG 1980.

The Trial Panels shall still conduct trial if the witnesses are absent but have earlier given their testimonies in person or sent their testimonies to courts.

If the expert-witnesses are absent, the Trial Panels shall decide to conduct trial or to postpone the court. If the interpreters are absent without substitutes, the Trial Panels shall decide to postpone the Court hearings. If expert-witnesses or interpreters must be replaced, the Judges, the Trial panels or the Civil matter-resolving council shall issue decisions to postpone the Court hearings.

When any procedure participants are absent from Court hearings and it does not fall into the cases which the Courts must postpone the Court hearings, the presiding Judges must ask if there is any one requesting to postpone the Court hearings. If there is, the Trial Panels shall consider and decide to accept or not accept such request. In case of non-acceptance, the reasons must be clearly stated.

In addition to absence and change of procedure participants, the change of procedure-conducting person may make the Court hearings be postponed. Firstly, in case of change of the Judge, People’s Jurors, Ombudspersons, Court clerks, procurators, the Trial Panels shall issue decisions to postpone the Court hearings.

What Bona Fide Possession of Property Are and How the Rights Are protected?

Possession in good faith means the possession that the possessor has bases to believe that he/she has the right to the property in Vietnam under his/her possession. Bona fide possessor is protected by the law on property rights. Owning this type of property might be subject to many potential disputes which parties should consult with dispute lawyers in Vietnam from time to time to understand his/her rights to the property.

 


Bona fide Possession of Property in Vietnam

According to Clause 3 Article 184 of the 2015 Civil Code, a person possessing in good faith, continuously and overtly shall be eligible for prescriptive periods for enjoying the rights and enjoy the yield and income derived from the property as prescribed in this Code and relevant laws.

A person possessing in good faith is entitled to protect his/her rights and his right to possession when meeting specific conditions. Before a third person entered into a civil transaction, a prior civil transaction was established, the previous civil transactions were invalidated. Besides, the third person establishing civil transactions must be honest. Property traded in accordance with law and civil transactions must be compensated.

The owner has the right to reclaim the property from the rightful owner in accordance with Article 167 and Article 168 of the Civil Code 2015. Accordingly, depending on the type of property subject to ownership registration or not, the reclaim of ownership of the owner has a certain difference. Specifically, owners may reclaim movable property not subject to ownership right registration from bona fide possessors in cases where such bona fide possessors have acquired such property through unindemnifiable contracts with persons who have no right to dispose of the property; in case of indemnifiable contracts, the owners may reclaim the movable property if such movable property has been stolen, lost or other cases of possession against the owners’ will.

Owners may reclaim their movable property subject to ownership right registration and immovable property, except for cases where a civil transaction is invalid but the transacted property is registered at a competent authority and such property has already been transferred to a bona fide third party through another transaction which is established according to that registration, such transaction shall remain valid.

In cases where the transacted property which is required to be registered has not registered at a competent authority, the transaction with the third party shall be invalid, except for cases the bona fide third party received such property through an auction or a transaction with an another party being the owner of such property pursuant to a judgment or decision of a competent authority but thereafter such person is not the owner of the property as a result of the judgment or decision being amended or annulled.

How Probation is Regulated in Vietnam Labour Code?

How Probation is Regulated in Vietnam Labour Code?

Probation is an agreement between an employee and an employer on a probationary job in a certain period of time in accordance with the provisions of law. Before entering into a labor contract, the employer and the employee should go through a probationary period to determine the long-term cooperation and attachment between the parties. The probation should comply with the provisions of the Labor Code and relevant guiding documents. The Labor Code 2019 comes into force as of January 1st, 2020, a number of new regulations accordingly are issued in connection to the probation, which each company should review the matter with its labour dispute lawyers in Vietnam for compliance.

 


Employment Dispute Law Firm in Vietnam

Regarding the circumstances which are permitted to enter into a probationary contract, this contract is not applicable to the labor term which is below 01 month.  The Labor Code 2012 does not require that the probationary provision must be stipulated in the labor contract. Accordingly, an employer and an employee may negotiate on the probation, the rights and responsibilities of the parties during the probation period. The parties may conclude a probation contract if there is an agreement on the probation. If the probation work meets the requirements, the employer shall conclude an employment contract with the employee. From these provisions, it can be understood that the employee and the employer should make a separate probationary contract. The labor contract should be signed when the probation is completed and the employee meets the recruitment requirements of the employer. According to the latest provisions in the Labor Code 2019, the employer and the employee may agree on the probation stated in the labor contract or a separate probationary contract. If the probationary provision is stipulated in the labor contract, the employer shall continue performing the existing labor contract at the end of the probationary period once the employee satisfies the requirements. Otherwise, a new labor contract shall be entered into.

The Labor Code determined the restriction of the probation period based on the nature and complexity of the job. The probationary period previously was limited to no more than 60 days for jobs requiring a college or higher professional qualification. Currently, the probationary period is permitted to extend up to 180 days for the executives. The executives play an important role in business and operation of the enterprises, including owner of a sole proprietorship, a partner of a partnership company, chairperson or member of the Board of Member, President of a company, President or member of the Board of Directors, Director/General Director, or holder of another managerial position prescribed in the company’s charter (applicable to the enterprise with no state capital)

Another amendment to the cancellation of the probationary contract, the Labor Code 2019 removed the limitation of the right to cancel. Accordingly, during the probationary period, each party has the right to cancel the probationary contract or labor contract entered into without prior notice and compensation. On the contrary, the employee and the employer may cancel the probation if the probationary job does not meet the requirements that the parties have agreed upon under the Labor Code 2012

Probationary periods are primarily designed to test out whether both employer and employee to match each other at the start of an employment relationship. The enterprises as employers need to have a clear understanding of the principles of entering into a labor contract as well as a probationary contract to avoid potential dispute in Vietnam.
