the Immigration Department of Vietnam has ceased to issue six month business
visas for foreign nationals entering Vietnam.

Following a recent report that showed a large number of undeclared foreign
employees, as well as concerns about the increasing number of foreign
laborers in Vietnam, reducing Vietnamese people's chance to find jobs, The
Ministry of Labor, Invalids and Social affairs, recently proposed State
agencies to tighten the management of immigration.

As per Government decree No34 on foreign labor regulation, foreigners
entering Vietnam for work are given 3 months to obtain their Work Permit.
Therefore the Immigration department no longer issues entry visa longer than
3 months to non work-permit holders.

Furthermore, foreign employees are now required to submit their work 

	permit for having their visa renewed. Likewise, documents evidencing
relationship to the work permit holder, such as marriage or birth
certificate are required for spouse and children who need a visa extension. 

After 6 months to 1 year of residence in Vietnam, work permit holders and
dependants are still eligible for the Temporary resident card. The card is
usually issued for the duration of the work permit and replace the business
visa.

For this reason, we advise foreigners and companies to initiate the work
permit preparation as soon as the assignment is confirmed. Resident Vietnam
can assist you. Contact now one of our
