What’s Legal Due Diligence ?

Vietnamese law does in fact not have a definition of “legal due diligence“. The term “legal due diligence” is understood as the evaluation, inspection, and review of the areas of the business to determine the current legal status of the business around issues of labour, operation, compliance with the law, and finance.

Usually, the evaluation will be done by an attorney when the financial year ends or when a company buys/sells with another company.
