Legal developments in Quang Ninh and Tay Ninh provinces

In Quang Ninh, commercial arbitration is being utilized as an alternative to court litigation to resolve business disputes regarding contracts, payments, and product quality. The province currently hosts two arbitration centers, the Vietnam-China International Commercial Arbitration Center (VCITAC) and the Vu Anh Commercial Arbitration Center, which employ over 200 arbitrators, including 77 Chinese nationals. Between 2025 and June 2026, these centers received 20 disputes, with nine cases resolved via arbitration awards.

Meanwhile, Tay Ninh province has announced an allocation of over 36 billion VND to protect intellectual property (IP) for the 2026-2030 period. The province aims to shift from administrative management to stricter enforcement, utilizing monitoring technology to combat IP infringement in digital environments. Local businesses have highlighted the urgent need for better protection of trademarks and content on e-commerce platforms to maintain consumer trust and prevent unauthorized use of corporate reputations.
