Hello All,

I'm thinking of spending a few months in vn with my fiancee, however I will be needing a job there.

What are the legal requirements for me to do so? What kind of a visa do I need? How do I get a work permit and how long will it take?

What kind of jobs are available to someone that only knows 20 words of Vietnamese? English teacher? I'm also very good with most things dealing with computers.

I won't be needing a lot of money because we will be staying with her mother, but of course the more the better!

Thanks!

gurugreg,

I'm sorry I can't be of much help here. All of the legal related working stuff is taken care of by the company I work for.

I can tell you that I have a B3 business visa. However, I came into Vietnam initially on a tourist visa the first time, and they processed the paperwork for my business visa after that. My business visa is six months, multiple entry.

Definitely check out the Vietnamworks.com website that justin728jn passed along. There are a lot of foreign invested companies here in Vietnam. While they enjoy the cheaper labor cost, perhaps you would be valuable to them with your skills and still at a relatively cheaper cost!

I landed in this company through a friend of mine I went to college with. I didn't come here searching for work, or a fiancee for that matter! :D
