DISCUSSION FOR REGISTRATION OF SOFTWARE COPYRIGHT BUYING FROM FOREIGN COUNTRIES.

DISCUSSION FOR REGISTRATION OF SOFTWARE COPYRIGHT BUYING FROM FOREIGN COUNTRIES.

Specialized laws do not require authors and software owners to register software copyrights. But authors and software owners should register copyrights for their software. Because when they have been granted a Registration Certificate If there is a dispute, the owner or author of the software will have no obligation to prove that the copyright belongs to him or her in the event of a dispute, unless there is evidence to the contrary.

Tax law stipulates that in case an economic operation violates the provisions of a specialized law, the related expenses are likely to be largely excluded from the corporate income tax expense.

Businesses should register rights in Vietnam related to computer software purchased abroad. Computer software needs to be registered for support in a foreign country before proceeding with the registration procedure for protection in Vietnam.

However, when individuals or organizations that are foreign authors register software copyrights in Vietnam, they must carry out procedures through a copyright representative organization in Vietnam such as a registered law firms.

DIFFICULTY IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE LAW IN THE CASE OF BUSINESS DISSOLUTION

DIFFICULTY IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE LAW IN THE CASE OF BUSINESS DISSOLUTION

  1. It is forbidden to terminate the performance of an already effective contract: Point e, Clause 1, Article 211 of the Law on Enterprises 2020 stipulates: Since the dissolution decision is issued, an enterprise or its manager is strictly prohibited from “terminating the performance of an effective contract”. This regulation inherits intact Article 205 of the Law on Enterprises.
  2. Separate regulations on termination of labor contracts according to the Labor Code: Compared with the provisions of the Law on Enterprises 2020, it is not possible to determine which document the “notification of termination of operation” in article 45 of the Labor Code 2019 belongs to according to the current dissolution process in Vietnam.
  3. Other prohibited acts: giving up or reducing the right to collect debts; signing new contracts, except for the case of enterprise dissolution; pledge, mortgage, donate or lease property; fundraising in any form…

It can be seen that these unreasonable regulations not only cause difficulties for businesses but also contain risks of social instability, leading to unnecessary lawsuit situations.

Signing an electronic labor contract in Vietnam when the 2019 labor law takes effect from January 1, 2021

From January 1st 2021, employers and employees can enter into electronic labor contracts in the form of data messages. The conclusion of an electronic labor contract shall comply with the provisions of the Law on Electronic Transactions 2005.

Article 33 of the Law on Electronic Transactions 2005 stipulates that an electronic contract is a contract established in the form of a data message according to regulations. Data message is information created, sent, received and stored by electronic methods which are the operating activities based on electrical, electronic, digital, magnetic, wireless transmission, optical, electromagnetic or similar technology.

Therefore, businesses and employees need to pay attention to the conditions for the electronic labor contract to take effect. In other words, when the employee and the employer choose to enter into a labor contract via electronic means, they need to fully satisfy the legal conditions of electronic documents (Article 13 of the Law on Private Transactions 2005) and digital signatures used (Clause 6, Article 3 of Decree 130/2018/ND-CP) to enter into a legally valid contract.
