Frequently Asked Questions

How long is maternity leave in Vietnam?

Female employees are entitled to 6 months of maternity leave regardless of whether it is a single or multiple birth. The leave can start up to 2 months before the expected due date.

What is the one-time birth allowance?

Upon giving birth, the mother (or father if the mother is not covered by BHXH) receives a one-time allowance equal to 2 times the BHXH base salary per child. In 2025, with a base salary of 2,340,000 VND, this is 4,680,000 VND per child.

What are the eligibility requirements for maternity benefit?

The employee must have contributed to BHXH for at least 6 months within the 12 months before giving birth or adopting a child. The benefit is paid by BHXH, not the employer.
