Editorial principles
- Use official provider pages for provider-specific claims.
- Label provider claims as claims, not independent proof.
- Record the date a source was checked.
- Rank only on published criteria and weights, and publish each score.
- Separate employment-model guidance from provider promotion.
- Accept no payment for placement and use no affiliate links.
What we evaluate
Vietnam specificity
Is there a dedicated Vietnam service page, scope, process, or employment guide?
Operating model
Does the provider describe the employing entity, platform, local support, or partner structure?
Scope clarity
Are contracts, payroll, tax, insurance, benefits, onboarding, and offboarding described?
Price clarity
Is a current starting fee visible, and what still requires a quote?
Human support
Does the provider explain who supports the client and employee when an issue is technical?
Track record
How long has the provider operated, at what scale, and what independent evidence can be checked?
Practical outputs
Can a buyer identify reports, payslips, checklists, trackers, records, or other deliverables?
How rankings are scored
The Vietnam EOR ranking scores each provider from 1 to 5 on six weighted criteria. The weighted total, out of 5, sets the order, and equal totals share a rank.
| Criterion | Weight | What scores well | Scores 1 when |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vietnam delivery depth | 25% | Own Vietnam entity or in-house local team, and current Vietnam-specific content. | No owned entity or local team, and no Vietnam-specific page. |
| Price transparency | 20% | A current public fee, and its level for a typical Vietnam salary. | No public fee, or only an ambiguous promotional figure. |
| Scope clarity | 15% | Contracts, payroll, tax, insurance, onboarding and offboarding described. | Service scope is not described beyond marketing claims. |
| Human support access | 15% | Who the client and employee reach when an issue is not routine. | No information on who handles non-routine issues. |
| Track record | 15% | Years in market, scale, and independent evidence that can be checked. | No founding date, scale or checkable client evidence published. |
| Platform and coverage | 10% | A live client platform and the ability to hire in other countries. | No live client platform and a single country. |
| Provider | Vietnam delivery depth | Price transparency | Scope clarity | Human support access | Track record | Platform and coverage | Total |

Scores as of 14 Oct 2026. A provider can ask for a re-score by sending evidence to the editors; changes are dated.
Scores are editorial judgements of public evidence, not product tests or customer ratings. A broad global platform and a Vietnam specialist solve different procurement problems, so the full breakdown is published for readers to re-weight. Each profile still carries a “best fit” assessment, trade-offs to test, and questions for the written proposal.
Source hierarchy
- Primary provider sources: official service pages, terms, and country pages.
- Authoritative Vietnam sources: competent authority publications and current official regulations, used where a guide requires legal or statutory detail.
- Independent evidence: client references, review platforms, or documented product testing, only when the evidence can be attributed and dated.
- Editorial inference: clearly described as our assessment, never presented as a provider fact.
Updates and corrections
Provider facts and public prices can change. Core comparison pages are scheduled for quarterly review, with earlier updates when a material change is identified. A correction should identify what changed, the date, and the supporting source.
Editorial independence
No provider funds, owns, or pays to appear on this site. Independence does not make an assessment correct, so we link primary sources, publish the scoring behind every ranking, and separate verified public facts from editorial assessments. Readers should still review providers directly and obtain multiple written proposals.
