According to the World Bank's report on 11 indices evaluating the business environment in Vietnam , the construction industry licensing procedure is one of only two indices that showed an increase. The other nice indices evaluating the business environment declined.


The Ministry of Construction noted that, in 2013, the number of unlicensed constructions reduced sharply by 9 percent compared with 4 percent in 2012. It said localities have rushed to seek official approval on new regulations for the construction industry that will provide a more effective base for granting licences.-VNA
