Answering all your questions about independent contractor agreements in Vietnam

You probably have questions. We’re here to answer them. Below, you’ll learn all the extra stuff you should probably know before putting together an independent contractor agreement for Vietnam.

Why do I need an independent contractor agreement in Vietnam?

Okay, so you found a great and trustworthy person in Vietnam, perfect for your project. Now, you might be thinking, "But wait, isn't it enough to just go off of a verbal agreement?" Unfortunately, verbal agreements often lead to problems. Written agreements establish crucial details like the scope of work, payment, and general terms that can easily get abandoned or forgotten without a written contract.

Get a contract, make sure it covers all the bases, and sit back and let your contractor do their thing. Everything will go much smoother when everyone has their interests protected at all times.

What do contractor agreements in Vietnam typically need to have?

Every contractor agreement in Vietnam (and, the rest of the world) can be broken up into two parts:

• Contract-specific variables: This includes things like scope of work, rate, and deadline. They’re the project-specific variables that you’ll include with each contract, and are totally dependent on what type of work you’re hiring a contractor to do.

• Everything else: Besides things like scope and deadline, every independent contractor agreement in Vietnam should follow a similar structure. If you want to grab your own contract with a compliant structure for Vietnam, sign up to Thera

What makes contractors different from employees in Vietnam?

Okay, so you're thinking about hiring someone in Vietnam (or any other foreign country) and you're wondering if you should go with a contractor or an employee, right? Well, a lot of people choose contractors because it's way easier and less of a hassle. Hiring employees comes with a bunch of additional rules and paperwork, making the onboarding process way more complex, costly and longer to complete. All of this makes hiring a remote contractor a lot smoother and more straightforward.

Here are a few of the key things that make contractors different from employees in Vietnam:

• Contractors can set their own schedules
• Contractors can work with their own software and tools 
• Contractors can work for other clients 
• Contractors rarely receive benefits, like health insurance*

Hiring contractors is the faster, cheaper, more flexible way to hire abroad. And, when you use Thera, you’re able to hire & pay with an employment-like experience—no more messy spreadsheets and manual wire transfers.

*With Thera, you can get your contractors access to sign up for premium global health insurance, from SafetyWing, at a 50% discount.
