Eor.vn hires your chosen candidate under a Vietnamese labor contract with our registered local entity, registers them for social, health and unemployment insurance, withholds and files their personal income tax, pays their salary in đồng by the last working day of each month, administers 13th-month salary and benefits, and — when the day comes — handles resignation or termination strictly by the Labor Code. You direct their work; we answer for their employment.
What is included
One monthly fee per employee covers the full employment lifecycle. There are no "implementation fees", no charge to onboard, none to offboard.
| Area | What we do |
|---|---|
| Employment contracts | Bilingual Vietnamese–English labor contracts per the 2019 Labor Code; probation terms set correctly (up to 60 days for roles requiring a college degree, at no less than 85% of full salary); amendments and renewals tracked so fixed-term rules are never breached. |
| Payroll | Monthly gross-to-net calculation, payslips in Vietnamese, salary transfers in VND, overtime at the statutory 150%–300% premiums, final settlements. Inputs close on the 15th, you approve by the 20th, payroll runs on the 25th. |
| Mandatory insurance | Registration and monthly filings for social insurance (17.5% employer / 8% employee), health insurance (3% / 1.5%) and unemployment insurance (1% / 1%), plus the 2% trade union fund. Caps applied correctly: the SI/HI base is capped at ₫46,800,000. |
| Personal income tax | Tax code registration, monthly or quarterly withholding declarations, dependent registrations, and year-end finalization — including for employees who join or leave mid-year. |
| Benefits | 13th-month salary accrual and payment before Tết, premium private health insurance options, meal/phone/transport allowances structured within the tax-exempt limits. |
| Work permits | For foreign hires: work permit under Decree 152/2020 (amended by Decree 70/2023), business visa, temporary residence card, and the special insurance treatment for expatriates. |
| Offboarding | Resignations, terminations and end-of-contract: notice tracking (45/30/3 days by contract type), severance at half a month per year of service where it applies, insurance book closure and final PIT reconciliation. |
| Compliance & records | Labor reporting to the authorities, personnel files kept per Vietnamese law, personal data handled under Decree 13/2023 on personal data protection. |
A month with Eor.vn
Payroll in Vietnam is a rhythm of hard deadlines. This is ours — the same calendar, every month:
| Date | What happens |
|---|---|
| 15th | Input cutoff: new hires, salary changes, overtime, bonuses, expenses. |
| 20th | You receive the draft payroll report for approval — gross, deductions, employer costs, our fee, all itemized. PIT declaration for the previous month is filed with the tax authority. |
| 25th | Payroll runs. You receive one consolidated invoice. |
| Last working day | Salaries arrive in employees' VND accounts. Social insurance contributions are paid to the authority. |
Year-end adds two fixed events: PIT finalization filed by 31 March, and compulsory leave-balance and insurance reconciliations, which we run without being asked.
What your employee experiences
EOR arrangements fail when the employee feels like a second-class hire. Ours do not, because the employment is real and local:
- A proper Vietnamese labor contract — the document their bank, landlord and visa officer recognize.
- Social and health insurance paid in full, visible in the national VssID app.
- Payslips in Vietnamese, salary in đồng, on time. The 13th month arrives before Tết, as it should.
- A Vietnamese-speaking HR contact at Eor.vn for leave, allowances, insurance and tax questions.
Where we say no. We do not run "contractor disguise" setups, cash top-ups outside payroll, or dual contracts that understate salary for insurance purposes. These expose you and your employee to real penalties — and they are the main reason companies get audited. If you want the gray-zone version, we are the wrong partner.
Pricing logic
You see three lines on every invoice, and they never blur into each other:
- Gross salary — agreed between you and your employee. We pass it through untouched.
- Statutory employer costs — insurance and union fund at the legal rates, at cost, with the calculation shown.
- Our fee — flat, per employee, from US$199/month. The only line we earn.
