Hi Audey,

Let's meet somewhere in District 1 so I may know exactly what you are looking for.

Best regards

I would to set a cafe business in HCMC using a Vietnamese to register as 'business household' during the initial period and covert it to a 2 persons limited liability enterprise at a later stage and participate in this venture via the purchase of a proportion of the company shares. Would that be feasible and like to hear any legal perspectives anybody can offer

is there a reason why you would want to acquire a shareholding in the enterprise, later rather than sooner?

Hello Melvyn,
If you already have a partner with whom you want to do business, it's better to start right away as a limited company with 2 shareholders. You will have a better legal protection of your interest than using a temporary status via a business household since this is a completely separate legal entity in which you have no right at all.
If your partner proposes this, he/she is having probably other reasons....

Hi Simon,

I was told  that for a 2 members LLC, the local partner will holds 51% while the foreign partner will holds 49% of the shareholding capital. As I would be providing 100% of the capital investment, I hope you could offer your views on how to protect my business interest and investment of those under the local partner's name.
