Frequently asked questions
1. Is my business required to adopt IFRS?

Proactively transitioning to IFRS will help businesses prepare for future legal requirements and facilitate smoother international cooperation.
2. How can IFRS advisory services help businesses comply with regulatory requirements?
IFRS (International Financial Reporting Standards) advisory services can help businesses effectively manage compliance with regulatory requirements, particularly as Vietnam integrates more deeply with international accounting standards. Specifically:
1. Compliance with Domestic Regulations
- Vietnam is on a roadmap toward IFRS adoption, requiring certain enterprises especially listed companies, foreign direct investment (FDI) enterprises, and financial institutions to transition from VAS (Vietnamese Accounting Standards) to IFRS.
- Advisory services help businesses proactively prepare to ensure compliance with the new regulations from the Ministry of Finance and the State Securities Commission.
2. Support in Transitioning from VAS to IFRS
- Analyzing gaps between VAS and IFRS to identify necessary changes.
- Providing guidance on adjustments to financial statements and accounting policies to align with IFRS.
- Training accounting staff on the procedures for preparing financial statements in accordance with IFRS.
3. Mitigation of Legal and Financial Risks
- Ensuring transparency in financial reporting to avoid violations related to information disclosure requirements.
- Minimizing issues related to audit and tax compliance when IFRS becomes mandatory.
- Better meeting regulatory requirements to reduce the risk of penalties.
4. Attracting Investors and Enhancing Corporate Reputation

- Foreign investors often require IFRS-based financial statements for easier assessment of a company’s financial position.
5. Supporting Businesses in International Market Expansion
- Businesses can more easily engage with foreign partners, list on international stock exchanges, or attract funding from global investment funds.

Absolutely. Depending on their goals and development orientation, many small and medium-sized enterprises still choose to adopt IFRS to enhance transparency, gain an advantage in fundraising, or expand international cooperation.
