Specific Regulation of Projects Subject to Investment Policy Approval<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Instead of general stipulations on projects subject to investment policy approval based on authority as in the Law on Investment 2020, the Law on Investment 2025 specifically regulates 20 projects subject to investment policy approval. These include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Projects using large or sensitive land\/resources:<\/strong> Change of forest use purpose (special-use, protection, production) with large areas; change of wet rice cultivation land use purpose of 500 hectares or more; projects with large-scale migration and resettlement; projects in areas affecting national defense and security; projects requesting assignment of sea areas.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Projects in special or sensitive sectors:<\/strong> Nuclear power; casinos, betting; oil and gas processing; air transport business; telecommunications with network infrastructure; afforestation; publishing and press activities implemented by foreign investors.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Projects related to heritage and specific urban areas:<\/strong> Projects in protected areas of national monuments, world heritage sites; projects in restricted development areas or historic inner-city areas of special-class urban centers.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Large-scale infrastructure and real estate projects:<\/strong> Construction of housing, urban areas (where the investor already has land use rights); golf courses; industrial parks, export processing zones, digital technology zones; large seaports; airports, aerodromes, and important aviation infrastructure.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Projects with special requirements:<\/strong> Requesting the State to allocate land, lease land, or allow change of land use purpose (excluding certain excepted cases); projects requiring the application of specific mechanisms\/policies different from laws; other projects under the approval authority of the Prime Minister as prescribed by law.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Regarding the authority to approve investment policy, Article 25 of the Law on Investment 2025 stipulates:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The National Assembly only approves investment policy for projects requiring the application of special mechanisms and policies.<\/li>\n<li>The Prime Minister approves investment policy for 08 groups of projects.<\/li>\n<li>The Chairman of the Provincial People&#8217;s Committee (replacing the Provincial People&#8217;s Committee) approves 13 groups of projects.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Reduction_of_Cases_Requiring_Adjustment_of_Investment_Projects\"><\/span>4. Reduction of Cases Requiring Adjustment of Investment Projects<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Article 33 of the Law on Investment 2025 stipulates <strong>05 cases<\/strong> where investors with projects already approved for investment policy must carry out procedures for approval of adjustment of investment policy:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Changes or additions to contents or objectives subject to approval of investment policy as specified in the investment policy approval document;<\/li>\n<li>Changes in the scale of land area used as prescribed by the Government, or changes in the investment site;<\/li>\n<li>Extension of the implementation schedule of the investment project in case where the adjustment of the schedule exceeds 24 months as prescribed in Clause 4 of this Article;<\/li>\n<li>Adjustment of the operation duration of the investment project;<\/li>\n<li>Change of the investor before the project is put into operation, for investment projects subject to concurrent approval of investment policy and investor, or changing conditions applicable to investors (if any).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Thus, compared to the Law on Investment 2020, Article 33 of the Law on Investment 2025 has <strong>removed 02 cases<\/strong> requiring investment project adjustment:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Changing total investment capital by 20% or more which changes the scale of the investment project;<\/li>\n<li>Changing technology that has been appraised or consulted upon during the investment policy approval process.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_Allowing_Adjustment_of_Investment_Project_Operation_Duration\"><\/span>5. Allowing Adjustment of Investment Project Operation Duration<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The Law on Investment 2025 retains the regulation that the investment project duration shall not exceed 50 years for projects outside economic zones or 70 years for projects within economic zones. However, investors are permitted to adjust to increase or decrease the operation duration of the project during implementation. The Law on Investment 2020 did not allow this, only permitting extension when the term was about to expire. Specifically, Clause 4, Article 31 of the Law on Investment 2025 states:<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>\u201cArticle 31.\u00a0Operation duration, and implementation schedule of the investment project <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>&#8230;<\/em><\/p>\n<ol start=\"4\">\n<li><em> In the course of implementation of an investment project, the investor may adjust to increase or decrease the operation duration of the investment project.
