According to Resolution 185/2023 issued by the Ho Chi Minh City People's Council on the state budget revenue and expenditure estimates for 2024, the maximum additional income coefficient applicable for 2024 is 1.5 times the salary scale and position.

Accordingly, the formula for calculating the monthly additional income of general education teachers in Ho Chi Minh City, when completing their tasks excellently, is calculated as follows:

Additional income/month = Salary coefficient + Position allowance coefficient (if any) x 2,340,000 VND (base salary) x 1.5 (additional income coefficient).

Of which 2,340,000 VND is the current basic salary (effective from July 1, 2024).

With these calculations, a grade III preschool teacher who completes his/her tasks excellently will have an additional income of 7.37 million VND/month (level 1, coefficient 2.1) to 17.1 million VND/month (level 10, coefficient 4.89).

A grade II preschool teacher who completes his/her tasks excellently will have an additional income of 8.2 million VND/month (level 1, coefficient 2.34) to 17.4 million VND/month (level 9, coefficient 4.98).

Grade I preschool teachers, excellent performance, have additional income from 14 million (grade 1, coefficient 4) to 22.3 million (grade 8, coefficient 6.38)

Meanwhile, for primary, secondary and high school teachers with grade III qualifications who complete their tasks excellently, their additional income will be from 8.2 million VND/month (level 1, coefficient 2.34) to 17.4 million VND/month (level 9, coefficient 4.98).

Primary, secondary and high school teachers, grade II, who complete their tasks excellently, will have an additional income of 14 million VND/month (level 1, coefficient 4) to 22 million VND/month (level 8, coefficient 6.38).

Primary, secondary and high school teachers, grade I, who complete their tasks excellently, have an additional income of 15.4 million VND/month (level 1, coefficient 4.4) to 23.7 million VND/month (level 8, coefficient 6.78).
