Notes. This calculator is provided for general reference, based on publicly available statutory contribution rates, regional minimum wages, and personal income tax brackets in Vietnam. Results are estimates and may not reflect every situation — tax-exempt allowances, benefits in kind, part-month employment, foreign employees not subject to unemployment insurance, a reduced occupational accident rate, or enterprises without a grassroots trade union may all change the outcome. Truzand supports payroll, employment administration, and practical HR compliance work; final figures depend on the agreed scope and the applicable requirements in each case. Legal basis: Law on Social Insurance No. 41/2024/QH15; Decrees No. 158/2025/ND-CP and 159/2025/ND-CP; Law on Employment No. 74/2025/QH15; Decree No. 293/2025/ND-CP on regional minimum wages; Decree No. 161/2026/ND-CP on the reference/base salary; Law on Personal Income Tax (amended, effective 01/01/2026); Decree No. 191/2013/ND-CP on trade union finance.
