Every year, the Ministry of Labor, War Invalids and Social Affairs consults with relevant agencies and advises the Prime Minister to decide on the Lunar New Year and National Day holiday schedule for civil servants, public employees and workers. The annual Lunar New Year holiday schedule is not fixed because the Labor Law only stipulates a 5-day Tet holiday. According to the 2019 Labor Law, each year, workers are entitled to 11 official holidays and Tet holidays with full pay, including: New Year's Day (1 day), Lunar New Year (5 days), Hung King's Commemoration Day (10-3 lunar month) (1 day), Victory Day (4-30) (1 day), International Labor Day (5-1 day) and National Day (2-9) (2 days). When working on holidays, workers receive at least 300% of their salary, of which 100% is taxable income and 200% is non-taxable income.
