1. Why HR & Payroll Management Is a Challenge in Vietnam
Managing HR outsourcing Vietnam and payroll services in Vietnam requires businesses to understand and comply with a series of complex regulations. From Labor Law, Social Insurance Law, to regulations on personal income tax (PIT) – all are constantly updated, making it difficult for many businesses to keep up.

For FDI companies, the pressure is even greater when having to both comply with Vietnamese regulations and standardize the process to report to the parent company according to international standards. SMEs are not easier, because maintaining a competent internal HR and payroll department is both costly and difficult to expand when the scale of human resources increases rapidly.
