🇻🇳 Vietnam · Insurance

Insurance in Vietnam — health, travel, and digital-nomad cover, what is mandatory, and how to choose a plan.

Vietnam insurance planning should separate compulsory social/health insurance for eligible employees from private health, travel, property and business policies.

  • Vietnam Social Security says foreign workers with qualifying contracts participate in compulsory social insurance unless an exception applies.
  • Private insurance remains useful for exclusions, waiting periods and coverage gaps in local or social schemes.
  • Employers should align insurance records with payroll, tax and work-permit records.
