Adjust Investment Registration Certificate in Trung My Tay Ward, Ho Chi Minh City

Implementing the policy of rearranging administrative units of Ho Chi Minh City, Trung My Tay Ward was officially established on the basis of merger between Tan Chanh Hiep area and the old Trung My Tay Ward. This change in administrative structure leads to the fact that the address information recorded on the Investment Registration Certificate of existing projects is no longer compatible with the new place names. In order to support businesses to quickly update legal documents to be accurate and synchronous, Viet An Law would like to provide detailed instructions on the procedures for adjusting the Investment registration certificate in Trung My Tay Ward through the following article.

Investment project situation in Trung My Tay Ward

Trung My Tay Ward owns a unique position in the Northwest area of Ho Chi Minh City including owning Quang Trung Software Park (QTSC) – the largest concentrated information technology park in Vietnam and located at the gateway of National Highway 22 to Tay Ninh/Cambodia and adjacent to National Highway 1A, An Suong intersection.

• Tan Chanh Hiep Ward: is the brightest spot in terms of FDI of the whole district. QTSC attracts a series of technology FDI enterprises from Japan, the US, and Europe (such as TMA Solutions, Hitachi Vantara, etc.). The capital flow here is high-quality capital, focusing on software R&D and export. In addition, in this area, there are also large universities and colleges (such as Hoa Sen University, FPT, Far East College).
• Trung My Tay Ward: Along National Highway 22 and main roads, investment capital flows (mainly domestic) are concentrated in car showrooms, wedding centers, hotels and retail chains.

The merger of these two areas creates a great impact, with QTSC at the center, the ward government can expand the smart city model to the whole ward. This attracts investors in telecommunications infrastructure, IoT solutions and technology businesses who want to set up offices outside the software park. The combination of convenient transportation infrastructure (Trung My Tay) and high-tech working environment (Tan Chanh Hiep) will create a great demand for mid-to-high-end real estate and serviced apartments.
