Expanding investment projects is an important step for foreign-invested companies that want to increase production and business. This shows the development of the project and the strong growth potential of the business. Below, A Dong would like to present this procedure in detail.

PROCEDURES FOR EXPANSION OF INVESTMENT PROJECTS

FOR FOREIGN-INVESTED COMPANIES


Definition and benefits of an expansion investment project 

An investment project is a proposal to invest medium or long-term capital to carry out business investment activities within a specified period of time and place.

Incentives for expanding investment projects 

A common question is whether foreign companies enjoy incentives when expanding investment projects. According to the provisions of law, expansion investment projects are still entitled to incentives if they meet a number of conditions on investment lines and areas. Investment incentives include lower tax rates, import tax exemptions, land use levy exemptions and other forms of incentives in accordance with the corporate income tax law and relevant regulations.

The expansion of the investment project leads to the requirement to adjust the investment certificate. An adjustment dossier comprises:

2. Report on the implementation of the project up to the time of adjustment. 

3. The investor's decision on the adjustment of the project (for organizations).
