Notes on business lines when establishing a company
- Choosing the right industry: Identify your primary and secondary industries early on — this affects your business type, capital structure, tax liability, and future expansion. Choosing the right industry makes it easier for your business to obtain licenses, reach customers, and avoid having to change your charter multiple times.
- Look up the industry code: When completing the application, it is necessary to compare the industry code according to the standards (for example: retail business code, construction industry code, accounting service industry code). Refer to Decision 27/2018/QD-TTg and related guiding documents to write the correct industry code when submitting the application, avoiding errors that lead to the application being returned.
- Conditional industries: Some industries require special conditions such as statutory capital, practice certificates, sub-licenses or facility conditions — for example:
- Real estate: conditions according to specialized regulations;
- Education, health care: professional certificates and standard facilities are required;
- Banking and insurance: are subject to strict legal regulations and require very high capital.
- Before applying, please carefully check the requirements applicable to your chosen profession to avoid wasting time revising and supplementing your application.
- Advice from PMH: PMH supports industry code lookup, analyzes legal conditions applicable to specific industries, and advises on how to draft regulations and choose the appropriate type to reduce the risk of application rejection. With experience in handling many cases, we help customers clearly identify the industry that requires a specialized license and the optimal way to submit the application.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Most industries do not require a minimum capital as a general rule; you only need to write down the charter capital appropriate to the scale of operations. However, some industries with conditions (e.g. banking, insurance, real estate, medical services, etc.) may require statutory capital or specific financial capacity conditions. PMH will advise on a reasonable capital level to avoid future adjustments.
It is not mandatory to contribute 100% of the charter capital immediately upon registration (unless otherwise stipulated by specialized laws). The company charter should clearly state the capital contribution schedule, contribution ratio and form of capital contribution. Note: for some practical activities (e.g., bank loans, applying for business licenses), you may have to prove your financial capacity.
Yes, in many cases you can use your home address as your head office if it is not located in a residential area, social housing or is not prohibited by local regulations. Some banks/partners require additional proof of address (rental contract, ownership confirmation), so please check the availability of the address before applying.
Yes, but foreigners usually need a work permit or proof of legal residence as required; and the company charter and industry regulations must also permit it. Some sectors also require additional work permit procedures or documents issued by the regulatory authority.
If the application is valid and does not involve a business with complicated conditions, the normal time is about 5-7 working days (including preparing documents, appraisal and stamping). For FDI applications or business requiring specialized licenses, the time may be longer. PMH will estimate the specific time when receiving the application.
Currently, many Departments of Planning and Investment allow electronic submission of documents, helping to save travel time. If you live far away or want to be quick, you should authorize a service provider to submit documents online. However, in some cases (for example, need to submit originals or edit directly), you still need to submit directly.
The company name must include the type of business + proper name, avoiding duplication or confusion with the registered name. Avoid using prohibited words or words that lead to misunderstandings about the function (for example: “bank”, “insurance” when not in the authorized industry). PMH has a company name lookup service before submitting the application to reduce the risk of being returned.
Yes. The charter is an internal document that defines the rights and obligations of members/shareholders, the management structure, and regulations on capital contribution and transfer. It is necessary to clearly state the regulations on capital contribution, dispute settlement, and profit sharing to avoid future conflicts. PMH supports drafting a charter appropriate to the type of business.
Priority steps: opening a bank account for the business, registering a digital signature for tax declaration, registering and issuing electronic invoices, declaring business tax. PMH has a post-establishment support package to complete these procedures quickly.
If you want to save costs, reduce risks and do not want to manage human resources, hiring accounting – tax services is a reasonable choice (no recruitment and training costs and easy to expand). If the business has a large transaction volume and wants direct internal management, it is advisable to hire an internal accountant. PMH provides both forms: recruitment consulting or full accounting services according to needs.
If you have any specific questions related to your case (e.g., applying for FDI, conditional industries, or want to know the cost of each package), please contact PMH for detailed advice and receive a suitable quote.
