A notable point is that newly registered capital still decreased compared to the same period last year, a decrease of 9.6%. The main reason is that in the first 6 months of 2024, the number of newly licensed projects with large registered capital of over 100 million was large, so the total newly registered capital was high (in the first 6 months of 2024, 18 newly licensed projects over 100 million USD with a total capital of 5.12 billion USD, accounting for 32% of the total investment capital).
Meanwhile, in the first 6 months of 2025, only 15 new projects over 100 million were granted, with a total registered capital of 3.2 billion USD, accounting for 15.1% of total investment capital).
In return, both adjusted capital and investment capital through capital contribution and share purchase increased sharply compared to the same period, respectively 2.2 times and 73.6%.
Not only capital increased, but also the quantity. In June alone, the number of newly licensed projects, capital adjustment projects, and capital contributions and share purchases was the largest in the first 6 months of 2025.
Of which, in terms of new registration, there were 439 projects, an increase of 27.3% compared to May, with total newly registered capital reaching 2.28 billion USD, an increase of 60% compared to May.
Regarding capital adjustment, there were 152 projects registering to adjust investment capital (up 13.4% compared to May), the total additional investment capital reached 426 million USD (down 80% compared to May). Regarding capital contribution and share purchase, there were 350 capital contribution and share purchase transactions by foreign investors, up 38.9% compared to May.
This, according to the Foreign Investment Agency, has shown the growing confidence of the international business community in Vietnam. Investors not only continue to choose Vietnam as a new destination but are also willing to expand the scale of existing projects.
