Ho Chi Minh Startup Checklist For District 1 & Thao Dien Founders

One link runs the Ho Chi Minh startup checklist — LLC via DPI, ERC, tax code, MoMo + ZaloPay live, lean MVP build, first 10 customers in VND.

Building a startup out of District 1, Thao Dien, or Phu My Hung means navigating LLC registration via DPI (Department of Planning & Investment), getting an ERC (Enterprise Registration Certificate), tax code from the General Department of Taxation, and choosing between MoMo, ZaloPay, and VNPay for the dominant Vietnamese payment rails. This Ho Chi Minh startup checklist combo wapin runs the lean spine with the actual Ho Chi Minh steps pre-filled: LLC at DPI (~VND 1M), ERC, tax code, business sub-license if regulated industry, and the Vietnamese payment rails wired up. Your Ho Chi Minh startup checklist holds the founder burn-rate in VND on a split-money block, the launch countdown with Vietnamese holiday awareness (Tết!), the customer-discovery tracker for the Vietnamese SME and consumer segments, and a poll for primary rail. As a Ho Chi Minh startup checklist it works because every co-founder — HCMC, Hanoi, Da Nang, or remote — sees the same registration progress on the same WhatsApp link. Run the Ho Chi Minh startup checklist once and the next District 1 founder you mentor will use the Ho Chi Minh startup checklist too.
