Opening a Mexican Restaurant in Hanoi.

If the restaurant is in your name, you'll need to establish a foreign-owned company providing catering services.  The procedures:

- Apply for Investment Registration Certificate at Department of Planning and Investment.
- Apply for Business Registration Certificate at the same department.
- Announce your business registration contents on National Portal of Business Registration.
- Engrave the seal for your company, submit seal sample to Department of Planning and Investment.
- Apply for Food Safety Certificate at Department of Health.

I don't suppose you'll want to serve alcohol, or your restaurant will be larger than 200m2,  or the location has never been a restaurant before, because there would be more to do if any of those factors are in your plan.

That's the legal part.  The practical side of the matter is another story.

I think a Mexican restaurant might do better in Saigon than Hanoi. Just a friendly suggestion!
