Recruiting Vietnamese Technical Intern Trainees – The Human Resource Bridge Between Vietnam and Japan
Overview of Vietnam’s Labor Supply and Technical Intern Training Programs
In recent years, the recruitment of Vietnamese technical intern trainees to work in Japan has become one of the most important areas of international cooperation between Vietnam and Japan.

1. Receiving Job Orders from Japanese Organizations
Vietnamese sending organizations sign contracts with Japanese supervising organizations or companies to define:
- Job categories, required number of trainees, and qualification standards

2. Candidate Screening and Interviews
Applicants undergo medical examinations, skill assessments, and interviews conducted directly or online by Japanese representatives.
Only qualified candidates proceed to official training programs.
3. Japanese Language and Technical Skills Training
Trainees receive 4–6 months of Japanese language training, aiming to reach JLPT N5–N4 levels for basic communication skills.
They are also taught professional techniques, workplace behavior, and Japanese culture relevant to their specific job category.
4. Final Evaluation Before Departure
Before departure, trainees must pass exams in Japanese language, professional skills, discipline, and health.
Those who meet all requirements move forward to the visa application process.

Before officially working in Japan, each trainee must complete several administrative and preparatory steps guided by the sending organization.
1. Preparing Personal Documents
- Passport, personal resume, birth certificate, and education certificates

2. Certificate of Eligibility (COE) Application
The Japanese accepting company or supervising organization applies for a Certificate of Eligibility (COE) at the Immigration Bureau of Japan.
3. Visa Application at the Embassy or Consulate

4. Pre-departure Orientation Training
Before leaving, trainees attend a 1–2 week orientation course covering:
- Japanese and Vietnamese labor laws
- Workplace safety and compliance rules
- Cultural adaptation, daily life guidance, and emergency handling
