Then Why does Vietnam become an interesting place to Japan to outsource their software development?

3 Reasons Why Japan chooses software development companies in Vietnam?

The primary driver for software outsourcing to Vietnam is a cost-efficiency.

Reason 1: Cost efficiency

For sure, cost efficiency is one of the primary drivers that affect the solution of outsourcing. Japan companies can expect to save up to 80% of their expenses while working with Vietnam IT partners. First of all, the salary rate is one of the lowest in Asia.

At InApps Technology, we offer the best quality ratio and provide clients with clear estimations. We also help to choose the most efficient payment scheme according to the every project. Our rate just from 18+/hour.

Besides, IT taxes are also lower. The vast amount of developers is hired as independent contractors. Such scheme ensures the substantial tax and comfortable reporting. According to it, an employee pays a fixed rate of 4% of his earnings. Add to this the lower costs for maintenance like office rent, bills, coffee breaks, and so on, and so far.

Reason 2: Strong labor force

A strong labor force is among the top reasons that Fortune 500 technology corporations brought their outsourcing operations to Vietnam, especially HCM and Hanoi. The country is in a period of “demographic bonus” when the labor force participation rate (population aged 15 – 64) is over 50%. With a young, dynamic, and well-educated workforce, Vietnam is becoming a new outsourcing powerhouse of the technology world.

Furthermore, with improved business environment and qualified labor force, all are the reasons that many companies decide to set up their distribution centers in HCM City and Hanoi, Vietnam, such as:

• Intel and IBM in HCM City, Vietnam.
• Teleperformance in Hanoi
• Siemens in both HCM and Hanoi

Especially, HCM City still can see its name in the list of the top 10 newly outsourcing emerging destinations (the nations from the 11th to the 20th in the top 100 are considered the most redoubtable rivals to the nations in the top 10). Tholons reserved a whole page in its report to analyze the capability of HCM City.

Otherwise, Hanoi, Vietnam is ranked fifth in the list of the world’s most optimistic countries on economic prosperity in 2017, according to a survey by WIN/Gallup, the world’s leading association in market research and polling.

Reason 3:  Japanese

In common with English, Vietnamese developers/staffs have abilities to communicate in French, Japanese. With Japanese communication skills together with low cost and political stability being its key strong points, Vietnam has become Japan’s second largest IT partner. More and more young people study Japanese in Vietnam, they try to get a chance to go to Japan as developers with many good benefits. Moreover, with Japanese skill, they easy get a higher salary than the same position but with English skill.
