SONA Company, formerly known as the Overseas Labor Service Station established in 1990, is a leading labor export enterprise in Vietnam. With a capital of over 97 billion VND, their main business areas include labor export, education consulting, and airline ticketing. In 2024, SONA was recognized as one of the eight most prominent labor export enterprises, having sent over 60,000 Vietnamese workers to over 30 countries and territories.
On May 21st, the Investigation Agency of the Ministry of Public Security issued an arrest warrant for four key figures of SONA, including the Chairman and the General Director, on charges of “Violation of accounting regulations, causing serious consequences” as stipulated in Article 221 of the 2015 Criminal Code, amended and supplemented in 2017.
According to the investigation, SONA took advantage of their position as a licensed labor export organizer to impose additional service fees on vulnerable workers. These fees, kept off the official accounting books, were used for personal gain, causing financial damage to the affected individuals and evading tax obligations.
