     Abstract This article aims to studying the entrepreneurship of female return migrant working abroad. The qualitative research method was used and was based on phenomenology, with the analytical unit at the individual and household levels. The data was collected from February until July 2020, by in-depth interviewing conducted with 14 female return migrants and by semi-structured interviewing conducted with 10 households of the female return migrants, in addition to group interviewing with 21 community leaders. The data was analyzed by the content analysis method. The results showed that most of the return migrants were males and married. More than half completed the secondary education and had previous experience of migration, both legally and illegally, with the destinations principally in South Korea, Israel and Taiwan, during which they worked in factories, farms, and in the service sector, earning USD625-2,656 monthly. When they return migrate, more than 3-quarters of female return migrant has used human capital, economic capital, and social capital accumulated form working abroad to develop to become entrepreneurs in both agribusiness and private businesses, such as modern farming, livestock, industrial factories, shop, and restaurant. It is a transition from traditional agricultural to commercial for the sustainability of return migrant and household.
