The Quảng Ninh Football Development Jointstock Company made the announcement under General Director Đoàn Khánh Tùng and will have its head office in Hạ Long City, Quảng Ninh Province. 

The company revealed that the Quảng Ninh Football Club will be re-established and registered to compete in the third division tournament this season.
