Cross-border Fund Clarity — Single Transfer File
For one specific transfer by an individual: salary or rental income leaving Vietnam, savings repatriated when you leave, a family remittance or inheritance arriving, tuition or living costs sent abroad. Not for funds whose origin cannot be shown with documents, and not for splitting one transfer into several. The working scope is confirmed only after reviewing the circumstances, available records and current requirements.
What you receive
- 01
Transfer purpose and route check — We confirm which purpose category your transfer falls under, which documents that category requires, and whether the amount sits inside the limits that apply to it — before you approach the bank.
- 02
Source-of-funds evidence map — A one-page map tracing the money from where it was earned or received to the account it leaves from, with each step matched to a document you already hold or need to obtain.
- 03
Tax position statement — Written confirmation of which tax has been paid or is not due on these funds, with the supporting receipts or declarations attached — the point most transfers stall on.
- 04
Bank file pack, bilingual — The complete set in the order the counter expects it: application, purpose evidence, source evidence, tax evidence, identity, with notarised Vietnamese translation arranged where a document was issued abroad.
- 05
Counter briefing and one follow-up — A short written briefing on what the bank may still ask and how to answer, plus one round of supplementary documents if the branch requests more.
Delivery routes
Choose the level of support that fits your capacity, timing and desired control. Each party's role is confirmed before work begins.
Route A is the default for this package; Route B (we attend the bank under mandate) is available on request.
Route A — You act, we guide
you keep execution; LotusGuard provides the costed roadmap, working notes and review checkpoints.
Route B — We execute under mandate
LotusGuard prepares and files the agreed work within the written authority.
Route C — Independent third-party QC
where a licensed specialist is required, LotusGuard vets the provider, holds one timeline and supervises delivery for a disclosed management fee.
Timing and quote
Fees are fixed against the scope stated in the quote and applied consistently. The quote identifies included work, exclusions, assumptions and any pass-through costs (government fees, translation, notarisation, third-party counsel).
Legal notice
LotusGuard prepares, organises and presents documentary evidence of the origin and purpose of funds, and liaises with banks and tax offices on your behalf under a written mandate. LotusGuard does not structure, split or disguise transactions, does not accept engagements where the origin of funds cannot be evidenced, and keeps client-identification records as if it were a reporting entity under Vietnam's anti-money-laundering law. Bank statements and tax records are sensitive personal data: they are collected only with your recorded consent, used only for the engagement, and deleted on the schedule stated in the engagement letter. The decision to execute, delay or refuse a transfer rests with the bank; no outcome is guaranteed. This is an independent advisory deliverable, not a legal opinion issued by a licensed law practice.
