The Ministry of Justice of Vietnam reaffirmed the government's commitment to creating a more transparent and efficient investment ecosystem. This step is being realized through the simplification of administrative procedures and system digitization, which serve as the government's main agenda to drive sustainable economic growth in the coming years.
Deputy Director of the Civil and Economic Law Department, Cao Dang Vinh, highlighted that the 2026 period will mark a crucial turning point with the implementation of various new regulations. He cautioned that legal risks for business operators often stem from delays in understanding regulatory changes. Therefore, synergy between legal support and policy dialogue is considered vital to minimizing operational hurdles on the ground.
On the same occasion, Chairman of the DVL Ventures Ecosystem, Nguyen Hong Chung, explained the paradigm shift in state management, which is now more development-oriented. The government's main focus is to eliminate bureaucratic bottlenecks and strengthen decentralization, creating a more flexible business climate through a transition from a pre-approval system to a more dynamic post-approval model.
Transformation is also occurring in the tax sector. Former Director of the Tax Management Department, Nguyen Van Phung, stressed the importance for companies to thoroughly understand the legal framework, especially with the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and big data in tax supervision. With systems capable of monitoring transactions in real time, corporate awareness of tax compliance obligations is essential to avoid administrative sanctions.
The conference concluded with an interactive dialogue session, giving business operators a platform to discuss technical challenges, including value-added tax (VAT) issues in specific sectors. Through this dialogue, the government hopes to provide direct guidance so that businesses can adapt precisely to the 2025–2026 fiscal policies while ensuring stability in their business operations.
