A work permit is one of the essential conditions for foreign workers to work in Vietnam. However, in reality, many foreign workers sign and perform labor contracts with employers even without a work permit. 

When a dispute occurs, especially in cases where the employer unilaterally terminates the labor contract, the signed labor contract is inherently invalid. Therefore, the employee cannot effectively protect their rights. 

Let's find out now with ATS Legal law firm!

Foreign workers working in Vietnam are required to have a work permit 

According to Labor Code2019, foreign workers working in Vietnam must meet the conditions of having a work permit issued by a competent Vietnamese State authority, except in cases not subject to a work permit as prescribed in Article 154 of Labor Code 2019.1 

Based on the issued work permit, foreign workers will be eligible to sign a labor contract with a term consistent with the term in the work permit as prescribed in Clause 2, Article 151 of Labor Code 2019. Therefore, it can be seen that except for foreign workers who are not subject to work permits, foreign employees are required to have a work permit when working in Vietnam.  

After being granted a work permit, foreign workers are obliged to present the work permit when requested by competent State authorities. In case of working without a work permit, foreign workers will be forced to leave or deported according to the provisions of the law on entry, exit, transit, and residence of foreigners in Vietnam.2
