Foreign contractors are required to describe their labor recruitment plans in bidding files and must prioritize the enrolment of local laborers.

Vietnamese project developers must work out regulations on the use of domestic and foreign laborers in accordance with law.

Foreign laborers will be provided visa by provincial police only after they receive their work permits from Vietnamese competent agencies.
