Time Limit for Processing Applications for Extension of Work Permits

View Post in Vietnamese: >> Thời hạn giải quyết hồ sơ gia hạn giấy phép lao động là bao lâu?

Let me inquire, according to the latest regulations, in cases where an employee's old permit has expired, and we submit a renewal application for a new permit, how many days will it take for us to be processed from the date of submission to the Department?

Pursuant to the provisions of Clause 2, Article 18, Decree 152/2020/ND-CP (effective from February 15, 2021):

Within 05 working days from the date of receipt of the complete application for extension of the work permit, the Ministry of Labor, War Invalids and Social Affairs or the Department of Labor, War Invalids and Social Affairs shall extend the work permit. In case the work permit is not extended, a written response stating the reasons shall be provided.

Thus, the processing time for the application to extend the work permit is 05 working days from the date of receipt of the complete application.

Respectfully!
