Đà Nẵng’s high-tech and semiconductor incentives, explained

Vietnam has placed Đà Nẵng at the centre of its high-tech ambitions, and the incentives on offer are among the strongest in the country. Here is what a qualifying strategic investor can expect.

A 10% tax rate for 15 years

Strategic investors in high-tech and semiconductor projects can access a preferential corporate income tax rate of 10% for 15 years — well below the standard rate. For capital-intensive projects with long payback periods, this materially changes the return profile.

Land and lease relief

Qualifying projects can be exempted from land and water-surface lease fees for up to 30 years. Combined with the tax incentive, this lowers two of the largest fixed costs of establishing and running a facility.

The Liên Chiểu Free Trade Zone

A pilot Free Trade Zone tied to Liên Chiểu Port is being developed with separate customs, tax and investment regulations that do not exist elsewhere in Vietnam. For manufacturers and logistics operators that import inputs and export output, the zone is designed to cut friction at the border.

These incentives target anchor investors and the suppliers around them — but eligibility and the application route depend on the project. CRP can assess whether your project qualifies and how to structure it. Book a consultation to start.
