Are any activity restrictions allowed under a Vietnam business visa?
Yes, while a Vietnam business visa allows for a variety of business activities, there are restrictions on certain types of work and employment. The business visa is intended for activities like attending meetings, negotiating contracts, consulting or representing foreign business interests in Vietnam. However, it does not permit formal employment with a local Vietnamese company or participation in roles that require a work permit, such as managerial positions or long-term assignments that involve a salary or regular income. Violating these conditions could result in fines, deportation or other penalties from immigration authorities. If your work plans require you to perform duties typically associated with formal employment, it’s advisable to apply for a work permit to avoid potential issues.
