A Vietnam time record should help you see who worked, on which date, for which project or cost center, and under which work category. The practical job is simple: collect hours that support payroll, billing, manager review, and internal employment records without turning every entry into a legal memo. For each person, separate normal hours, overtime, night work, paid leave, and deductions that affect the salary note.
Vietnam's Labour Code requires employers to prepare and update a physical or electronic employee book and report employment-status changes. It does not impose an EU-style objective daily working-time record for all employees. That absence matters. You still need accurate time data because normal working hours, overtime limits, night-work premiums, and salary notes depend on dates, totals, and categories.
Normal working hours in Vietnam must not exceed 8 hours per day or 48 hours per week. If the employer applies working hours on a weekly basis, daily working hours may not exceed 10 hours and weekly hours may not exceed 48 hours. The state encourages 40-hour workweeks, so your setup should preserve the actual schedule instead of forcing every team into one template.
Overtime needs more detail than a single weekly total. The employee must agree, and the employer must respect statutory daily, monthly, and annual overtime limits. General caps include 50% of normal working hours in a day, 40 hours per month, and 200 hours per year except specified cases. Selected sectors and urgent cases may reach 300 hours per year, with written notice to the provincial labour authority.
Vietnam's minimum overtime pay rates are 150% on normal days, 200% on weekly days off, and 300% on public holidays or paid leave, with the stated holiday or leave exclusion for daily-paid employees. A useful time record tags the day type before payroll runs. A line such as "Design review, 2.5 overtime hours, normal day, client A" gives payroll and billing a cleaner starting point than "extra hours."
Night work runs from 22:00 to 06:00 and must be paid with at least a 30% premium. Overtime at night also adds at least 20% of the day-work salary for the relevant day type. Keep night hours apart from ordinary overtime because the premium logic changes. Salary in employment contracts and actual payment must be in Vietnamese dong except for foreign employees, and each salary payment needs a note showing salary, overtime pay, nightshift pay, and deductions if any.
A simple weekly timesheet is enough for a small one-off job when one person records hours, no overtime is disputed, and the output only supports an internal total. That approach breaks down when managers need consent history, project allocation, repeated payroll review, client billing, and month-to-date overtime checks. Vietnam's caps and night-work rules reward consistent categorization.
Everhour fits the managed workflow once time data needs to feed reporting instead of sitting in a spreadsheet. Logged hours can flow into customizable reports with grouping, filters, date ranges, exports, and scheduled delivery. Keep privacy in the design as well: Vietnam's Personal Data Protection Law, effective January 1, 2026, and Decree 356/2025/ND-CP treat identifiable employee time data as personal data processing that needs notice, consent or a lawful exemption, and relevant controller or processor obligations.

Vietnam's Labour Code requires employers to prepare and update a physical or electronic employee book and report employment-status changes. It does not create an EU-style objective daily working-time record mandate for all employees. Employers still need usable time records for working-hour limits, overtime, night-work premiums, salary notes, internal controls, and client billing.
A Vietnam timesheet should separate normal working hours, overtime on normal days, overtime on weekly days off, overtime on public holidays or paid leave, night work from 22:00 to 06:00, and deductions or leave that affect payroll. Payroll review becomes weaker when all extra time is grouped under one "overtime" label.
Vietnam rules require employee agreement before the employer may request overtime, and statutory daily, monthly, and annual overtime limits still apply. A late note may explain why extra hours appeared, but it does not replace a clean process for consent, manager approval, and tracking against the 40-hour monthly and 200-hour annual general caps.
Vietnam payroll records should support Vietnamese dong because salary in employment contracts and actual payment must be in VND except for foreign employees. Each salary payment must include a note showing salary, overtime pay, nightshift pay, and deductions if any, so time categories need to connect cleanly to VND payroll lines.
Vietnam's Personal Data Protection Law, effective January 1, 2026, and Decree 356/2025/ND-CP apply when time-tracking data identifies an employee. Treat that data as personal data processing. Give the required notice, use consent or a lawful exemption, and follow the controller or processor obligations that fit the employer's role.
Everhour Reporting turns logged hours into configurable reports with 45+ columns, metadata filters, grouping, date ranges, and exports in CSV, Excel/XLSX, or PDF. A manager can review normal time, overtime visibility through Team Hours and custom reports, project allocation, and billing status before payroll or client reporting.
Everhour embeds time tracking controls inside supported tools such as Asana, ClickUp, GitHub, Linear, Jira, Monday, Notion, Trello, and Basecamp. Teams can keep task work in those systems while tracked time flows into one reporting layer for budgets, utilization, billing, and management review.
Track approved hours, group them by project and person, and export the reports Vietnam teams need for payroll review, billing, and operational control with Everhour Reporting.
