What are Languages in Arbitration Proceedings in Vietnam?
Article 10 of the Vietnam Law on Commercial Arbitration says that if both parties are Vietnamese, the language used in arbitration proceedings to settle a dispute is Vietnamese, or a language agreed upon by both parties if one of them is a foreign-owned business. Specifically:
Except for disputes in which at least one party is a foreign-invested enterprise, the language of arbitration is Vietnamese for disputes with no foreign component. A dispute party may employ an interpreter if it is unable to speak Vietnamese.
For questions including unfamiliar components or debates to which no less than one party is an unfamiliar contributed undertaking, the gatherings will agree on the language to be utilized in arbitral procedures. The arbitration council will decide on the language to be used in arbitration proceedings if they do not have such an agreement.
Arbitration lawyers in Vietnam can also help clients with a variety of issues, such as choosing an arbitrator, choosing the rules for the arbitration, choosing an ad hoc or institutional arbitration, choosing a location for the arbitration, and getting an arbitral award enforced.
