10-Mar, 2025 - Vietnam has emerged as a top destination for Australian trade and investment, driven by its business-friendly policies, young workforce, and thriving manufacturing and technology sectors.
The Vietnam-Australia Enhanced Economic Engagement Strategy (2021) has further strengthened trade ties, with bilateral trade exceeding $20 billion in 2024. The country’s GDP growth is expected to exceed 6% annually through 2025, driven by foreign investment, a growing middle class, and increasing demand for products and services across various sectors.
Key industries such as agriculture, manufacturing, education, and technology offer vast opportunities for Australian companies to establish a presence in the market.
To help businesses navigate the complexities of international documentation requirements, Authentifier is offering a streamlined solution to assist Australian companies with the Apostille and attestation of documents needed for operations in Vietnam.
Authentifier’s services cater to Australian businesses that require their documents to be legally recognised in Vietnam. As a non-Hague Convention country, Vietnam requires attestation rather than Apostille for the authentication of documents, which can be a complicated and time-consuming process. Through their specialised services, Authentifier is simplifying this procedure, helping businesses save time and avoid bureaucratic hurdles.
“For businesses entering Vietnam’s market, the need for document authentication cannot be overstated,” shared a representative from the company. Whether it’s registering a company, applying for business visas, entering contracts, or hiring local employees, legal documents must be recognised by the Vietnamese government.
“As a non-Hague Convention country, Vietnam does not recognise the Apostille process, which simplifies document authentication for countries party to The Hague Apostille Convention Abolishing the Requirement for Legalisation of Foreign Documents. Instead, businesses must undergo a more complex attestation process to ensure their Australian documents meet Vietnamese standards,” he added.
The process for attesting documents involves obtaining legalisation or authentication from relevant Australian authorities, including the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT), before having the documents recognised by the Vietnamese authorities. Without proper attestation, documents submitted for business purposes may be rejected, leading to delays and potential fines.
Authentifier is transforming the way Australian companies approach document authentication for Vietnam and other non-Hague countries. The company offers a comprehensive service that covers every step of the document attestation process, ensuring that documents are correctly authenticated for use in Vietnam.
One of the key benefits of using Authentifier’s services is their expedited turnaround times. Businesses can rest assured knowing that their documents will be processed promptly, allowing them to focus on other aspects of their operations in Vietnam.
Authentifier’s dedicated team of experts also provides one-on-one consultations, offering advice on the specific documents needed for business expansion in Vietnam, which can vary depending on the nature of the business.
With a clear and easy-to-follow process, Authentifier saves businesses time and effort by handling all aspects of document authentication. They take the hassle out of dealing with different government agencies and legal requirements, simplifying the process for clients.
As more Australian businesses explore opportunities in Vietnam, Authentifier’s role in simplifying the authentication process is becoming increasingly important. By providing a one-stop solution for document authentication, the company enables businesses to focus on their core operations while leaving the complexities of document legalisation to the experts.
Vietnam’s regulatory environment can be challenging to navigate for first-time investors. Having the right documentation in place is essential for companies looking to maintain a good standing with local authorities and partners.
Authentifier’s expertise in document authentication services ensures that companies can quickly and efficiently meet the requirements of Vietnam’s legal and business systems.
