Why isolate ĐT3 from ĐT1–ĐT4?

ĐT3 is the investment band that still sits on the TRC-eligible list with a 3-year card, while ĐT4 (under 3 billion VND) does not. The same 3 billion line appears again in labour exemption rules — that double gate is the unique consequence.

Does ĐT3 skip the work permit?

Owner/board capital at or above 3 billion VND is a filed work-permit exemption limb. Confirm the role still fits. Below that line you are usually in ĐT4 territory for stay and still need a permit for many owner roles.

ĐT3 — capital that still reaches TRC

One number — 3,000,000,000 VND — decides both whether temporary residence is on the table and whether an owner/board exemption can open. ĐT4 sits under that line and fails the TRC list.

Capital band on file

ĐT3: from 3,000,000,000 VND up to under 50,000,000,000 VND (Luật Nhập cảnh Điều 8 khoản 7c). Full ĐT1–ĐT4 table: investment path.

TRC ≤ 3 years

ĐT3 shares the 3 years TRC band with TT / NN1 / NN2 (Luật Nhập cảnh Điều 38 khoản 4). It is on the eligible list; ĐT4 is not (TRC page).

Labour double gate

Owner/board capital threshold on file: 3,000,000,000 VND (NĐ 219/2025/NĐ-CP Điều 7 khoản 2–3). Below that line, capital roles typically still need a permit (yes). Crossing into ĐT3 for stay does not automatically prove the labour exemption — confirm role and filing. Detail: work permit.
