The new decree replaces Decree 43/2010 and Decree 05/2013 on requirements for business registration and establishment, according to the Government’s portal chinhphu.vn.
Many businesses have expressed concern that it would be difficult for business registration certificates to be issued within three days. However, Minister of Planning and Investment Bui Quang Vinh said recently that more than one month after new business registration regulations took effect on July 1, the average time for completing business registration procedures had been reduced to 2.6 days.
The new decree allows the business registration agencies to receive business registration applications and return results at designated places for business start ups.
According to the decree, a new company will be provided with only one code to use for business operation and tax payment when it is approved to come into life.
