The IPD is the first stop for providing information on the investment process in Laos.The IPD’s primary functions include: promoting Laos as an investment destination, offering investment incentives, screening investment proposals, collecting investment data and monitoring investment practices. Our Web site is another way we make information readily available and provide easy access to the IPD and investment in Laos. The IPD has established a “One Stop Service” or OSS to facilitate foreign investors throughout the process of applying for investment licenses. OSS also offers aftercare services to existing investors.
