What do you need to prepare for traveling to Vietnam? Things to note when traveling to Vietnam

Vietnam is a country full of reserved customs and is also a neighbor to the south of China. It has been deeply influenced by Chinese civilization since ancient times, and many living habits and customs are similar to those in southern China. It is a good place for tourism and vacation. Let me share with you the precautions and preparations for traveling to Vietnam.

What should you pay attention to when going to Vietnam?

1. About visa

Vietnam visa is a separate paper visa, which needs to be applied for in advance and carried with the passport. As for visa on arrival, yes, but you need to get the approval in advance and the procedure is a bit cumbersome, so I don’t recommend it!

The correct approach is this: Based on your travel needs, directly look for a reputable visa on a certain website. You can take your passport photo to the agency. You don’t need to mail the original document. The visa can be mailed to your home in about a week. Note: Vietnam’s ordinary visa is valid for 30 days, so the effective date must be specified and the effective time cannot be defaulted.

2. Social Security

The security situation in Vietnam is good, but there are also some thefts. Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City are particularly prominent. Motorcycle thieves are rampant. Don't take valuables with you when you go out. Don't answer the phone on the street, just grab your bag. Vietnam is a kingdom of motorcycles, and everyone must obey traffic rules when traveling.

Font Vietnam's main currency is:

Vietnamese Dong. Carry your bank card with you and exchange it for Vietnamese dong at the airport or withdraw it from an ATM. Vietnamese dong has a larger denomination, so be sure to read the 0 after the number when buying things. In addition, it is especially recommended to separate your money and important documents. It is best to scan important documents and put them in the mailbox just in case.

3. Currency currency exchange

Vietnam’s wifi wireless network is very developed, and most of them can be used directly without a password. Therefore, it is recommended that you use communication applications on your mobile phone more often without spending money on phone calls. If you want to activate roaming, first activate domestic and international roaming. It’s just that the rates are high. There are three phone operators in Vietnam: Viettel, Vinaphone and Mobiphone. Each sim card sells for 50,000 Dutch guilders, but needs to be recharged.

4. Network communication

Time difference: Vietnam time is one hour behind Beijing time, that is, 9 o'clock in China and 8 o'clock in Vietnam.

5. Time difference

It is not recommended to go to Nha Trang. It has been over-developed, there are many domestic people, and the customs clearance fee is serious; Dalat is very beautiful and is known as the back garden of Vietnam; Da Nang is known as the Hawaii of the East, while Mui Ne has red and white sand dunes. Ho Chi Minh City is at the forefront of Vietnam's economic development and must be visited; Internet celebrity Phu Quoc Island, a newly built island with no visa, few people and beautiful scenery, is the best choice to enjoy nature and experience the original fishing village.

6. Recommended tourist attractions

Vietnamese coffee, cashew nuts, dried fruits, Vietnamese three treasures (Vietnamese perfume, white tiger activation cream, horn comb), Vietnamese Ao Dai, drip coffee, Vietnamese bride.
