Guantao advises a leading manufacturing enterprise on its factory establishment and operational compliance in Vietnam

Guantao Shenzhen Office has continued to advise a leading Chinese manufacturing enterprise in its expansion into Vietnam, providing cross-border legal services in connection with the establishment of its manufacturing facilities and subsequent operational matters. The project was led by Partner Fei Dandan, who coordinated a cross-disciplinary team to advance the engagement. The Guantao team focused on investment pathway design, key transaction structuring, contract governance, and risk control mechanisms. Through the development of executable documentation and process systems, the team provided integrated oversight of overall project delivery and key risk points, supporting management-level decision-making. Legal opinions under Vietnamese law and local procedural matters were issued by licensed Vietnamese counsel.

Cross-jurisdictional investment and operations are critical components of outbound expansion. Differences in regulatory regimes, approval standards, enforcement practices, and dispute resolution mechanisms often combine to create significant uncertainties in overseas projects. In response to the common need to balance regulatory certainty with commercial efficiency, Guantao has developed a full-lifecycle support framework covering “market entry – project implementation – ongoing operations – risk response,” including:

• Providing implementation roadmaps and risk control guidance at key stages such as establishment and construction;

• Reviewing and standardizing key agreements and frequently used contract templates;

• Delivering ongoing risk management support for recurring operational scenarios, and, where risk events arise, formulating response strategies and dispute resolution pathways. When necessary, coordinating with local counsel to handle procedural matters and response measures to ensure that project delivery remains practical and enforceable.

In recent years, Guantao has continued to advance its scaled development and international expansion, with its domestic and overseas service network steadily strengthening. Through structured project delivery and coordinated cross-jurisdictional collaboration, the firm provides integrated legal services covering the entire investment and operational lifecycle for Chinese enterprises. These services encompass overseas investment and establishment, project and transaction structuring, contract and compliance system development, employment and supply chain compliance, domestic and overseas listings and capital markets matters, as well as risk management and dispute resolution. Guantao is committed to providing consistent and dependable legal protection and risk management support to assist Chinese enterprises in expanding globally and achieving sustainable, high-quality international growth.
