On the heels of its successful accession to the WTO
in 2007, Vietnam’s commitment to investment
facilitation and progress in liberalizing trade are
quickly transforming the communist nation into
one of the world’s most
attrac tive destinations
for manufacturing. This
monumental rise coincides
with China’s wage inflating
transition towards efficiency
driven production and
p r e s e n t s s i g n i f i c a n t
opportunities for investment
in Vietnam.
Likemany frontier economies,
theability tomaximize returns
in Vietnam is integrally tied to a firm understanding
of its economy. Assessing investment opportunities,
leveraging trade agreements, and finding suitable
locations for production are all of critical importance
for any successful entrant to the Vietnamese market.
In this edition of Vietnam Briefing, we discuss
the advantages of the Vietnamese market over
its regional competition and highlight where
and how to implement successful investment
projects. We examine tariff
reduction schedules within
the ACFTA and TPP, highlight
considerations with regard
to rules of origin, and outline
the benefits of investing in
Vietnam’s growing economic
zones. Finally, we provide
expert insight into the issues
surrounding the creation of
100 percent Foreign Owned
Enterprise in Vietnam.
As China becomes increasingly uncompetitive
in low cost manufacturing, opportunities for
foreign investment have never been greater in
the Vietnamese economy. With our specialized
knowledge in market entry strategy advisory, Dezan
Shira &Associates can help guide foreign companies
as they tap into Vietnam’s great potential.
