Pensions, social insurance benefits delivered to beneficiaries at home to prevent COVID-19 spread.
In accordance with the policy of Vietnam Social Insurance, the money of two months will be paid in one time through postal services from April 16 through May 25. Those who are in special circumstances can have the money delivered to their home.
In order to receive money at their home, beneficiaries will have to either sign up at the website www.ansinhxahoi.vnpost.vn, or call the hotline 1900.545481 of the Vietnam Post. They can also ask district post offices for help in registering.
Before delivering money to beneficiaries’ homes, post office workers have their body temperature taken, and are required to clean their hands with hand sanitizer after each payment. Both postal workers and money recipients have to wear face masks and keep at least two metres apart during the payment process.
Those who want to receive pensions or benefits ahead of schedule, or cannot arrange for home delivery, or live in localities different from the registered addresses can receive pensions and benefits at post offices. At every payment location, beneficiaries are advisednot togatherin crowdsand stay at least two metres from each other in the queue. They are also asked to clean their hands with hand sanitizer and wear masks during the process.
For those who live in lockdown areas due to the Covid-19, local post offices will consult local authorities and relevant bodies in order to deliver their pensions and benefits in a safe and timely manner after the lockdown ends.
