Post study work visa options after graduating from Vietnam?

Vietnam offers limited post-study work visa options for international graduates. Typically, students must secure a job offer from a Vietnamese employer to transition to a work visa (DL, DN, or LV). The employer sponsors the visa, which is usually valid for 1-2 years and renewable.

Alternatively, graduates can apply for a temporary residence card if employed long-term. Some may qualify for a business visa (DN) by starting their own company. Policies vary, so consulting Vietnam’s Immigration Department is advised. Networking and internships during studies improve job prospects. Language skills and local market knowledge enhance employability.
