Question:
I’m final year of dental surgery student in USA. I am interested in working in Vietnam after graduation. Could you please let me know the process for getting license of dentist in Vietnam? Do I need to get any exam?
Answer:
This is reference to your email below. Under Vietnam Law, in order to practice as a dentist, you must obtain License to practice as dentist in Vietnam.
For this purpose, firstly, you must have been employed by a dental clinic in Vietnam. Furthermore, you shall have to prove that you have been already licensed to practice as dentist abroad for a specific period, for instance, 1 -02 years.
Furthermore, if you could not speak Vietnamese, you must have a qualified Vietnamese Interpreter who has basic dental background.
