Considerations · 03
Important Considerations
Factory Location
- The location of the factory must be carefully considered
- According to Vietnamese law, the location must conform to the city's master plan — all location-related documents must be submitted
- Site selection should be determined after thorough review before preparing application documents to avoid risks during the license application process
Industrial Complex Recommendation
We recommend establishing a factory by renting land in an industrial complex where possible. However, the actual cost of renting land in an industrial complex in Hanoi is quite high due to the limitation of the current land area. It is also not easy to find a large lot of more than 5 hectares.
Environmental Regulations
Recently, as regulations on environmental pollution in manufacturing facilities are being strengthened, it is necessary to pay attention to the fact that the application may be rejected if the infrastructure for handling pollutants and the relevant requirements are not met. We recommend that you proceed in consultation with a wealth of experts.
When selecting a site for a factory, you should review the following in advance:
- Required area of factory site
- Production process
- Pollutants that may be generated in factories and their treatment plan
