📢 “Is Salary Bank Transfer Mandatory from July 2025?”
A common rumor is circulating:
👉 "From July 2025, paying salaries in cash will be illegal in Vietnam!"
Let’s clarify this with facts:
✅ Cash salary payments are still LEGAL!
According to Article 96 of the Labor Code 2019 and Decree 145/2020/NĐ-CP, employers can pay salaries by cash or bank transfer.
So where did the confusion come from?
It’s likely due to Decree 181/2025/NĐ-CP, which requires non-cash payment proof for purchases over VND 5 million — but only for VAT-deductible transactions, not salaries.
📌 Salaries are NOT subject to VAT and do NOT require invoices.
So this Decree doesn’t apply to payroll.
