According to Decision 886/QD-BNV issued by the Ministry of Home Affairs on August 11, six new administrative procedures have been designed to be more streamlined, eliminating redundancy and shortening processes. They are also eligible for deployment as fully online public services. The competent authority for receiving and resolving these procedures is the People’s Committee at the provincial level. The six procedures are as follows:

Six new administrative procedures in the field of employment
In parallel, the Ministry of Home Affairs also announced the abolition of 11 old administrative procedures in the field of employment related to foreign workers in Vietnam. These are illustrated below:

11 abolished administrative procedures in the field of employment
The replacement of the 11 old procedures with six new ones is considered an important reform, bringing practical benefits to management agencies, enterprises, and employees. Firstly, the number of procedures has been reduced from 11 to six, and the resolution authority has been concentrated at the provincial People’s Committee, thereby overcoming overlapping and scattered responsibilities. The processing procedure has also been simplified by eliminating unnecessary reporting and explanation steps, saving businesses time and effort in preparing additional documents.
Moreover, the entire process, from submitting applications to tracking progress and receiving results, is carried out online, ensuring transparency and ease of monitoring. Streamlining the procedures not only saves time and costs for businesses and employees but is also particularly significant given the increasing demand for foreign labor in Vietnam. This is a clear testament to the efforts of administrative reform and modernization of state management, aiming for a favorable and transparent investment and business environment. It also facilitates foreign workers’ legal, stable, and long-term employment in Vietnam.

“Experts: Progressive Policies are Only as Good as Their Implementation”
“Vietnam has long been lauded for its progressive reforms, and this is testament to the country’s forward-thinking policies. However, as Oliver Massmann, Managing Director of Duane Morris Vietnam and a veteran legal practitioner in the country for almost three decades, points out, the gap between policy formulation and implementation remains a challenge. The key issue, according to Massmann, is not a lack of new policies, but rather the pace of enforcement. Vietnam’s potential is undeniable, yet to fully unlock it, the country must address the disconnect between its ambitious plans and on-the-ground realities.”
