Workers in Vietnam may get a long Tet holiday in 2027. The Ministry of Home Affairs has proposed seven days off in a row for public workers. The break would run from 4 February to 10 February. Five days are set by law, and two more make up for a weekend. The government still needs to approve the plan.
Private companies do not have to follow the full schedule. By law, their workers get at least five paid days for Tet. Each company can choose how to place those days. Officials encourage businesses to give the longer break when they can. Today, workers in Vietnam have twelve paid public holidays each year.
