Quang Ninh, a bright spot in administrative reform and investment attraction, is steadily realizing its goal of fast and sustainable economic growth through comprehensive solutions to support businesses in economic zones (EZs) and industrial parks (IPs).
In recent years, Quang Ninh province has continuously affirmed its position as one of the most attractive investment destinations in Vietnam. Notably, in the first quarter of 2025, the province implemented a series of synchronized solutions to improve service quality for enterprises in EZs and IPs – one of the province’s strategic pillars for economic development.
Comprehensive Infrastructure – Digitalized Procedures – Enhanced Service Quality
Quang Ninh has focused on developing modern and synchronized technical infrastructure in EZs and IPs, considering this a key factor in attracting investment. Simultaneously, the province has accelerated the digitalization of administrative procedures, reducing processing time and enhancing transparency and service efficiency.
According to the Quang Ninh Economic Zone Authority, in the first quarter of 2025, the authority received and processed 116 administrative documents. Impressively, 68 were resolved ahead of schedule, 16 on time, and none overdue – reflecting the province's commitment to efficiency and business-centric governance.
Comprehensive Support Throughout the Investment Lifecycle
Beyond administrative procedures, Quang Ninh prioritizes comprehensive business support – from the initial investment preparation phase to project implementation and operation. Specialized working groups are regularly deployed on-site to monitor project progress, promptly address emerging challenges, and ensure adherence to investment commitments regarding progress, quality, environmental protection, and workplace safety.
In Q1/2025, the Economic Zone Authority received and handled 40 proposals from investors and enterprises, covering land, infrastructure, utilities, planning, labor, and employment. Relevant departments and agencies acted swiftly and decisively to resolve these issues within their jurisdiction.
Accelerating Site Clearance – Expanding Ready-to-Invest Land
Site clearance and land lease procedures are often bottlenecks in attracting investment. Acknowledging this, Quang Ninh has accelerated land clearance across EZs and IPs. To date, 2,717 hectares have been cleared, of which 1,105.9 hectares – accounting for 56.06% of the leasable industrial land – have been leased to investors.
Positive Investment Results – Impressive Economic Growth
Thanks to these holistic efforts, Quang Ninh has attracted 351 valid off-budget investment projects in its EZs and IPs, including 147 foreign direct investment (FDI) projects with total registered capital of USD 10.367 billion, and 204 domestic projects totaling VND 132.134 trillion.
In Q1/2025, the province’s economic growth reached 10.91%, ranking third in the Red River Delta region and seventh nationwide – a clear testament to the effectiveness of its enterprise support policies.
Toward a Green – Modern – Sustainable Industrial Ecosystem
Beyond investment attraction, Quang Ninh is striving to develop EZs and IPs that are green, modern, and environmentally friendly. This strategic move aligns with global sustainability trends and Quang Ninh’s goal of achieving 14% economic growth in 2025. It also helps reinforce the province's image as a top-tier investment destination offering a “golden triangle” of favorable conditions – right time, right place, and right people.
With strong determination and decisive actions, Quang Ninh is steadily affirming its position as a “gold mine” for investors in Vietnam – where businesses can confidently thrive and grow sustainably for the long term.
