English term or phrase: Furniture allowance
Le document énumère la liste des allocations auxquelles un expatrié peut prétendre pendant son expatriation au Vietnam : Adjustment bonus + Installation bonus + Furniture allowance

**Furniture allowance** is paid to the incoming impatriate who is accommodated into a non-furnished house and who has not been allowed to ship own furniture into the country of expatriation.
The allowance is for the purchasing of necessary basic furniture.
Amount of Installation bonus differs according to status of the impatriate and number of dependents who live in the country of impatriation.
Furniture purchased within this budget belongs to XXX; all bills must be handed to the Company.
Furniture can be bought back by the Impatriate upon departure at a price that is set according to duration of stay in expatriation (see international mobility conditions).
In case the impatriate is provided with a partially furnished apartment, a prorata of furniture allowance can be paid, according to reasonable purchasing needs.
