Question: The company I work for is printing and manufacturing, buying and selling stationery, with a charter capital of VND 2 billion with the form of a one-member limited liability company. Now there is a foreigner who wants to buy a 20% stake in my company. So my lawyer asked me what documents I have to prepare and how to carry out the procedure when a foreigner (US citizen) buys a capital contribution in my limited company?
