This article examines the legal provisions, analyzes, and evaluates the current legal framework governing capital contribution by intellectual property rights (IPRs) by foreign investors into Vietnam in the contemporary context. By employing qualitative research methods in combination with descriptive statistical analysis based on secondary data collected from existing legal documents related to capital contribution by intellectual property rights of foreign investors, the article identifies several positive aspects as well as certain shortcomings and limitations in the legal regulation of this form of capital contribution. On that basis, the article proposes a number of recommendations aimed at addressing these shortcomings and limitations, thereby improving the effectiveness of legal implementation in capital contribution activities by intellectual property rights of foreign investors in Vietnam.
