Introduction
The EB-3 (Employment-Based Third Preference) program is one of the most reliable and accessible pathways for Vietnamese citizens to legally live, work, and settle in the United States with their families.
But many still ask, “Am I eligible for EB-3?”
This article explains who qualifies, what the requirements are, and what opportunities exist — especially for Vietnamese applicants.
1. What is EB-3?
EB-3 is a U.S. employment-based immigration category that allows foreign nationals to obtain lawful permanent residency (Green Cards) through employment.
It includes three main categories:
- Skilled Workers: At least 2 years of training or work experience.
- Professionals: Possess a bachelor’s degree or equivalent.
- Unskilled Workers: Positions requiring less than 2 years of training or experience.
Once approved, applicants and their families receive 10-year Green Cards and enjoy the same rights as U.S. permanent residents.
2. Eligibility for Vietnamese Applicants
EB-3 is one of the most approachable U.S. immigration programs for Vietnamese workers. You may qualify if you:
- Are 18–50 years old, in good health, with a clean background.
- Have no criminal record or immigration violations.
- Wish to work and live long-term in the U.S. under a legal labor contract.
- Can adapt to a new work environment and follow employer training.
- Possess basic English skills (recommended but not mandatory).
3. Opportunities for Vietnamese Workers
Vietnamese applicants are in demand across many industries in the U.S., particularly in:
- Food production and processing.
- Hospitality and restaurant services.
- Manufacturing and assembly.
- Agriculture and landscaping.

- Family sponsorship included (spouse and children under 21).
- Eligible for U.S. citizenship after 5 years of residency.
EB-3 is an ideal legal and long-term option for Vietnamese seeking a stable future in America.
