Social insurance answers about the regulations on enjoying the regime of demobilization in the army
Vietnam Social Security has just responded and provided information about the additional working time when receiving the discharge regime.
Sending a question to the Vietnam Social Insurance (VSS), Mr. N.V.P (Ha Tinh) said: He was born in 1973, enlisted on November 4, 1987, discharged from the army on December 14, 1994 under the demobilization regime.
He has been a preschool teacher since January 1, 2003 and has paid social insurance.
Mr. P requested the competent authority to guide him on how to revoke the decision to enjoy the reform regime on December 14, 1994 so that he can add his time in the army to the time of social insurance payment.
Regarding this issue, Vietnam Social Security responds as follows:
Clause 3, Article 34 of Decree No. 158/2025/ND-CP dated June 25, 2025 of the Government detailing and guiding the implementation of a number of articles of the Law on Social Insurance on compulsory social insurance stipulates:
"For employees who have been a soldier or a People's Public Security officer and have been demobilized, discharged, or quit their jobs between December 15, 1993 and December 31, 1994 but have not yet settled the severance allowance or one-time allowance, demobilization allowance, or one-time social insurance, the actual working time in the army or the People's Public Security will be counted for social insurance".
In the case of him enlisting on November 4, 1987, discharged from the army on December 14, 1994, and receiving a demobilization regime, his actual service time in the army will not be counted for social insurance.
