Work Permit is a required document for foreign workers to be able to live and work in Vietnam.

However, in recent years, due to the illegal residence and working of many foreigners in Vietnam, state agencies have taken measures to strictly control the issuance of Work Permit for foreigners. Therefore, many enterprises have encountered difficulties in the process of carrying out the procedures for granting the above type of documents to employees at their units.

In order to work in Vietnam, foreign workers need to be issued a work permit, and a work permit is only issued when the following conditions are met:
