Thanks, everyone!

My friend is married to a local Vietnamese, and he works as an examiner throughout the pandemic. My understanding is without this marriage work permit exemption, his contract with the school will lapse, and he will be forced to leave the country. He is a father of 4 years old.

So the question is 1) Can my friend appeal to the school's principal/owner to issue an emergency exemption based on his work record and humanity? 2) And can the NZ consulate general in Ho Chi Minh City help my friend, please?

Thanks

I'm asking this question for a friend, on behalf of my dear friend who is in Vietnam.

The teaching school in Vietnam delayed in issuing a marriage work permit exemption for my friend. So now they left it too late, and they can't legally give my friend teaching work.

Please advice.

Thanks
