Published in www.legalbusinessonline.com in November 2011 by Tuan Nguyen, Partner at bizconsult law LLC.
On 17 November 2010 the Vietnam Parliament adopted Law No. 59/2010/QH12 on Protection of Consumer's Rights. As publicly announced by the State President on 30 November 2010, this new law will become effective as of 1 July 2011, replacing the existing 1999 Ordinance No. 13/1999/PL-UBTVQH10 on Protection of Consumer's Rights, which is deemed too simple and therefore does not work in practice. The new law provides particular legal stipulations on the rights and obligations of consumers; the responsibilities of traders to consumers and the responsibilities of social organisations in protection of the rights of consumers; disputes and settlement of disputes between consumers and traders; and the responsibilities of the State to protect the right of consumers.
