TopSource rated 5/5 by our customers
Every payslip filed. Every question answered
Vietnam’s payroll is a complex and highly regulated system. Employers must navigate a web of mandatory contributions, including Social Insurance (SI), Health Insurance (HI), and Unemployment Insurance (UI), each with its own salary caps and calculation rules.
The system is further complicated by a progressive Personal Income Tax (PIT) structure, mandatory Trade Union Fees (paid by the employer), and four different regional minimum wage zones. This landscape of frequent regulatory changes makes compliance a serious challenge that demands deep local expertise.
Our expert-led services and purpose-built software enable you to run fast, accurate payroll in Vietnam without the risk. And if you have a query, your dedicated support team is just a phone call away. So you can focus on growing your business, and not endless red tape.
TopSource runs it as part of our global payroll services.
