The new Land Law 2024 in Vietnam introduces several changes favoring foreign-invested companies (FICs). FICs can now receive land-use rights as investment capital, be allocated land for residential construction projects, and lease land from the government. The land price framework is replaced by an annually adjusted land price list, providing a more responsive reflection of market dynamics. Land users have the flexibility to choose between annual or one-time payments for land leasing fees, aiding in cash flow management. Arbitration is now recognized as a dispute resolution method, offering a confidential alternative. Real estate project investors can transfer their entire project or a segment to another investor, with the recipient inheriting responsibilities without reconstructing documentation unless substantive changes occur.
