PwC (Vietnam) Limited - new legal entity’s name

Ho Chi Minh City, 30 May 2017 – We are pleased to announce that the name of the legal entity PricewaterhouseCoopers (Vietnam) Limited has officially changed to PwC (Vietnam) Limited from 30 May 2017. The corresponding Vietnamese name is Công ty TNHH PwC (Việt Nam).

In practice, the acronym "PwC" had been used interchangeably with "PricewaterhouseCoopers" both within and outside the PwC network for many years before becoming the official brand name in 2010.

PwC Vietnam’s Chief Operating Officer Richard Peters comments on the legal entity’s new name:

“The name change is aimed at providing more ease of use for our clients and business partners. It helps to align how customers perceive us with the company we represent. It also supports PwC’s endeavour to strengthen our brand recognition in the market as a leader in assurance, tax, legal, consulting and deals services.”

All other details of the legal entity remain unchanged, including the company address and enterprise code (also tax code).

Furthermore, effective from 17 June 2017, PwC Vietnam’s telephone numbers will change to comply with the area code changes in Vietnam. Accordingly, the land-line numbers of PwC Vietnam’s offices will be as follows:

 Ho Chi Minh City office: (+84 28) 3823 0796  Hanoi office: (+84 24) 3946 2246
