Our Solutions

One Partner To Handle Every HR Need For You

From the day you hire to ongoing compliance and employee wellbeing — Talent JDI covers every aspect of managing your Vietnam team.

Vietnam Labor Law

Mandatory Benefits & Employer Obligations in Vietnam

Vietnam's Labor Code is detailed and regularly updated. Every employer — local or foreign — must meet these statutory requirements or face penalties.

17.5%Average Time to Close a Senior Developer Role

Without a curated, pre-vetted network, sourcing cycles stretch — especially for senior Vietnam IT roles with strong English communication requirements.

3%Health Insurance (BHYT) — Employer Share

Provides employees access to the Vietnamese public healthcare system. Employee contributes 1.5%. Mandatory for all employees on contracts of 3 months or longer.

1%Unemployment Insurance (BHTN) — Employer Share

Funds the national unemployment benefit scheme. Employee also contributes 1%. Required for employees on indefinite or fixed-term contracts of 12 months or more.

12+Paid Annual Leave (Days)

Minimum 12 days per year, increasing to 14 days after 5 years with the same employer, and 16 days for hazardous work. Unused leave must be paid out on contract termination.

13thMonth Salary (Strongly Expected)

Not legally mandated but a deeply ingrained cultural expectation. Paid before Tết (Lunar New Year). Absence of a 13th- month payment is a leading cause of voluntary resignation in Vietnam.

11Official Public Holidays

Includes Tết (4 days), Liberation Day, International Labor Day, National Day (2 days), Hung Kings' Festival, and New Year. Working on these days entitles employees to 300% of daily pay.

What Talent JDI Files on Your Behalf

Monthly PIT declarations, annual tax finalization, and foreigner PIT advisory under Vietnam-DTA treaties

Labor contract drafting, review & renewal

Work permit & residence card management (expats)

End-to-end processing for foreign employees, including renewals and exemption letters

FAQs

Common Questions About HR & Compliance in Vietnam

Everything you need to know before your first brief.

1

Regulatory Monitoring — Continuous

Our legal and compliance team tracks every circular, decree, and announcement from Vietnam's Ministry of Labor (MoLISA), Ministry of Finance, Vietnam Social Insurance (VSS), and General Department of Taxation. Changes are logged within 24 hours of publication.

2

Payroll Calculation — Triple-Checked

Each monthly payroll cycle uses a three-layer review: automated calculation, HR specialist review, and a senior accountant sign-off. Contribution rates, salary caps, and taxable income thresholds are updated each time regulations change.

3

Filing — 5 Days Before Deadlines

All BHXH, BHYT, BHTN, and PIT filings are submitted at least 5 business days before statutory deadlines. This buffer protects against banking delays, portal outages, and amendment needs without incurring late-filing penalties.

4

Contract Lifecycle Management

We track every contract expiry date and initiate renewal reviews 60 days in advance. Fixed-term contracts that have been renewed twice are automatically flagged for conversion to indefinite-term contracts, as required by Article 20 of Vietnam's Labor Code.

5

Client Reporting — Monthly Compliance Report

Every client receives a monthly compliance summary: payroll run summary, all filings submitted with confirmation numbers, any regulatory changes affecting their team, and upcoming deadlines. Full transparency, zero guesswork.

6

Annual Compliance Audit

Each year, our team conducts a full audit of your employee records, contribution history, contract statuses, and benefit enrollments. Any gaps are resolved before they become penalties. Clients receive an audit report with a clean certification sign-off.

FAQs

Common Questions About Hiring Developers in Vietnam

Everything you need to know before your first brief.

No. With Talent JDI as your Employer of Record, we become the legal employer of your Vietnam team. You retain full operational control — we handle all employer obligations including contracts, insurance, payroll, and tax. This removes the need to incorporate a local subsidiary, which typically takes 3–6 months and carries ongoing compliance overhead.
