⚙️ Improving Legal Framework and Administrative Procedures

Travis Mitchell, Executive Director of the American Chamber of Commerce in Vietnam (AmCham), emphasized that in the face of global trade volatility, Vietnam must continue to maintain a stable and reliable policy framework.

He highlighted that streamlining licensing procedures, customs clearance, and ensuring consistent tax policies among localities are key factors in strengthening investor confidence and reducing operational risks for FDI companies.

AmCham also encouraged Vietnam to enhance legal clarity in e-commerce, cybersecurity, and creative industries, facilitating cross-border data flow and attracting more high-tech investment.
