Specifically, the additional salary is calculated as follows: Monthly additional salary = Salary coefficient according to rank, position, title x Basic salary 1,150,000 VND/month x 8%.

Additional salary is not used to calculate social insurance, unemployment insurance, health insurance and salary allowances.

Previously, on November 10, at the 8th session, the National Assembly passed a Resolution on the State budget estimate for 2015, which included allocating 11 trillion VND to increase salaries for retirees, preferential allowances for meritorious people, and salaries for low-income civil servants, public employees, and armed forces (salary coefficient from 2.34 or lower).
