How to check company registration in Vietnam?

Vietnam maintains an open and transparent business registration system managed by the Ministry of Planning and Investment (MPI). If you want to check company registration in Vietnam, follow these steps:

1. Access the National Business Registration Portal

• Visit the official website: https://dangkykinhdoanh.gov.vn/vn/Pages/Trangchu.aspx
• This is the Vietnam National Business Registration Portal, managed by the Business Registration Authority under the MPI.

2. Search for the Company

• Use the search bar (“Tìm kiếm”) on the homepage.
• You can search by:
  • Company name (in Vietnamese or English). For more accurate results, especially when searching by company name, it's recommended to use the official Vietnamese name with proper diacritics.
  • Business registration number (Mã số doanh nghiệp)
  • Tax code (Mã số thuế)

3. Review Company Details

Once the company appears in the search results, click on the listing to view:

• Legal name of the business
• Business registration number
• Tax code
• Legal representative(s)
• Registered office address
• Date of incorporation
• Business activities

Note: For legal or due diligence purposes, always request certified copies of registration documents from the company or through a legal representative.

4. Use the GDT Portal for Tax Information (Optional)

• For additional tax status verification, visit the General Department of Taxation’s website: https://tracuunnt.gdt.gov.vn/tcnnt/mstdn.jsp
• This allows checking the tax code and whether the company is active in tax filings.
