Nearly 900,000 Vietnamese workers abroad send back 6 – 7 billion USD per year
The Ministry of Home Affairs has just released a draft report summarizing the implementation of the Law on Vietnamese workers going abroad under contracts.
Accordingly, in the period 2022-2025, the activity of sending Vietnamese workers abroad continued to be maintained and developed, recovering strongly after the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The number of Vietnamese workers going abroad under contracts reaches about 130,000 – 150,000 people per year. Among them, remittances from Vietnamese workers are estimated at 6 – 7 billion USD per year. Leading provinces such as Nghe An and Ha Tinh receive thousands of billions of VND per year.
Also according to the Ministry of Home Affairs, the overseas labor market has been expanded to 57 countries and territories.
By the end of 2025, nearly 900,000 Vietnamese workers are working abroad, concentrated in key markets such as Japan, Taiwan (China), South Korea, and some new markets with high skill requirements.
The ministry assessed that the revenue from remittances of Vietnamese workers abroad contributes significantly to the national balance of payments, and through the process of working abroad, a workforce improves skills, foreign languages, and discipline, becoming a quality human resource for socio-economic development upon returning home.
