On the other hand, it is favorable in changing the transfer, changing information. And the important thing is favorable to use, transfer of capital, profits abroad.

According to our experience, when doing investment activities in Vietnam, foreign enterprises need to pay attention to the following issues of capital:

  • Investors should choose the appropriate level of investment with business lines and fields. For example: If the company does production or processing, it will need a large capital for: renting factories, investing in machinery, technology … and working capital. In this case, loans will often be used, especially foreign loans (medium and long-term loans will have to be registered with the State Bank according to regulations). Therefore, it is necessary to analyze and identify two important indicators: Investment capital and contributed capital to implement the project.
  • For the professions of: Services, consulting …. the needless amount of the fixed capital, but it should be enough to pay working capital, such as: Office, staff salaries….

Why are foreign investors facing difficulties and no tax refunds for investment projects according to regulations?

According to current regulations, VAT refund will be applied in 02 cases:

  • Refund of VAT on export activities

Normally, foreign investors do not receive tax refund when setting up a company in Vietnam for the following reasons:

According to our experience, this is a huge disadvantage for investors, and the error belongs to the accounting department, the original consulting department.

According to the regulations, foreign investors are protected by law and create favorable conditions for their legitimate interests in Vietnam. Therefore, foreign investors, after fully implementing the prescribed tax case, can remit profits abroad.

However, some enterprises faced difficulties due to not comply with capital regulations when investing in Vietnam. As:

  • Investment capital account opened in accordance with regulations
