Why Hire in Vietnam

Expanding to Vietnam

Vietnam is one of Asia's fastest-growing tech and manufacturing hubs. It offers an abundant, highly energetic technical workforce with world-class software engineering capabilities at competitive compensation levels.

Using an EOR in Vietnam simplifies local labor compliance, payroll, and statutory fund remittances, avoiding lengthy foreign investment licensing procedures.

Employment Laws

Employment Regulations in Vietnam

Under the Labor Code of Vietnam, standard working hours are 8 hours per day and 48 hours per week (40 hours recommended). Probation periods vary from 60 days for highly skilled tech roles to 30 days for intermediate roles. Termination grounds are strictly regulated, requiring valid cause and defined notice periods (30 to 45 days for indefinite contracts).

Taxes & Benefits

Taxation and Employee Benefits

Employers pay approximately 21.5% in mandatory statutory insurance (Social Insurance 17%, Health Insurance 3%, Unemployment Insurance 1%, plus Trade Union fee 1%). Statutory benefits include 12 days of paid annual leave, 11 national public holidays, and paid maternity/paternity leave.

Payroll & Tax Withholding

Vietnamese Payroll Standards

Payroll is distributed on a monthly basis in VND. Employers must withhold Personal Income Tax (PIT) under progressive rates and remit statutory insurance funds directly to social insurance authorities by the end of each month.

IP Assignment & Cybersecurity

Intellectual Property and Data Security

Under Vietnam's Intellectual Property Law, copyrights and industrial property created by employees under contractual duties automatically transfer to the employer. Data governance strictly complies with Vietnam's Law on Cybersecurity and Personal Data Protection Decree.
