INDUSTRIAL PARK PROJECTS: TRENDS AND LEGAL FRAMEWORK

In the context of Vietnam’s deep economic integration, industrial park projects have emerged as a strategic pillar in attracting both domestic and foreign investment. As land resources become increasingly scarce, competition among investors is intensifying, requiring thorough preparation in legal documentation, investment procedures, and valuation. At the same time, activities such as buying, transferring, and mortgaging projects are becoming more dynamic, creating a landscape full of opportunities yet also significant challenges.

Industrial Park Project Market Trends 2025

The year 2025 is forecast to mark a new growth milestone for Vietnam’s industrial park market. The shift of supply chains from China and other Asian countries to Vietnam continues strongly. This presents a golden opportunity for industrial park development projects to accelerate implementation, especially in provinces with advantages in infrastructure and logistics.

Regions such as Bac Ninh, Hai Phong, Quang Ninh in the North, and Binh Duong, Dong Nai, Long An in the South are witnessing rapid development of numerous new industrial park projects. The average industrial land rental price is expected to increase by 7–10% annually, driving higher demand for buying and selling industrial park projects.

Another notable trend is the emergence of green industrial parks and smart industrial parks, aligned with sustainable development orientations. This is a key driver positioning Vietnam as a leading attractive destination in the region.

Outstanding Industrial Park Projects in Vietnam

Vietnam currently has more than 400 industrial parks, with many new projects being developed in key economic regions.

• Northern region: Hai Phong with Deep C Industrial Park, Bac Ninh with VSIP Industrial Park, Quang Ninh with Dong Mai Industrial Park.

Notably, many projects are shifting toward ecological, logistics, and high-tech industrial park development, promising long-term value for investors.

Legal Documentation and Investment Process for Industrial Park Projects

Legal compliance is a key factor when implementing any industrial park project. A qualified project must include:

• Investment Registration Certificate

• Land allocation or land lease decision

• Environmental Impact Assessment report

• Detailed 1/500 planning

• Construction permit

The investment process for industrial park projects typically includes:

• Surveying and proposing investment policy

• Seeking approval for planning and environmental impact assessment

• Completing legal documentation for the project

• Carrying out land procedures and obtaining construction permits

• Developing infrastructure and attracting tenants

To conduct the buying, selling, or mortgaging of industrial park projects, investors need to understand the basic process:

• Legal due diligence: ensuring the project is eligible for transfer

• Valuation: determining the actual value of the project

• Negotiation and signing of transfer contracts

• Completing ownership transfer procedures with authorities

• For mortgages: submitting appraisal documents and signing credit agreements with banks

Projects with clear legal status have higher liquidity and are easier to transfer or use as collateral for bank loans. In contrast, projects with incomplete legal frameworks often face significant risks, including disputes or delays.

Opportunities and Challenges in Transferring Industrial Park Projects

The transfer of industrial park projects is becoming increasingly active, especially in key economic regions. Opportunities arise from large capital demands of developers and strong interest from investment funds and FDI enterprises. Projects with favorable locations, transparent legal status, and completed infrastructure can generate high profits when transferred.

However, challenges are also considerable. Project legal frameworks are often complex, requiring thorough verification to avoid risks. Additionally, valuing industrial park projects is difficult, as it depends on multiple factors such as infrastructure, operational potential, local planning, and market capital flows.

Moreover, mortgaging industrial park projects to raise capital from banks or partners is also being applied, but must comply strictly with regulations to avoid disputes. Therefore, investors need clear strategies and should collaborate with professional consulting firms in transfer transactions.

Valuation – The Key to Success in Industrial Park Project Investment

The industrial real estate market is constantly fluctuating, and industrial park project valuation is the decisive factor for the success of any transaction, including buying, transferring, mortgaging, or investing. An accurate valuation report will:

• Ensure transparent transactions and eliminate pricing risks

• Build strong trust with banks, investment funds, and partners

• Help investors optimize costs and improve capital efficiency

Especially in M&A or project transfer deals, valuation acts as a “safety filter,” protecting interests and balancing benefits for both parties. It is not just a legal procedure but also a strategic tool for making accurate decisions in a highly competitive environment.
