SIM cards for non-residents? by It2VN
For previous visits of up to 15 days I've just got a form of tourist (physical) SIM card. I'm curious about what longer term visitors' solutions are if they're not officially resident and so can't obtain a regular contract. Do they resort to ...

Thanks for the feedback. I'll try the check-in receipt route first and if that proves problematic, I might as well go the monthly 5GB or similar option. Depending on how things pan out, I'll probably be looking to do visa runs or just return after ... Read More

Hi, what would you say are the better language centers or schools to work at in Vietnam? I was recently offered a position with VUS and am interviewing with Scots English, but I am hesitant about both (especially Scots). I do not yet live in Vietnam ...

Look in to RMIT who have campuses in Hanoi, HCMC, and Da Nang. The recruitment bar is higher than many but they pay well and conditions are good. Read More

As my visa will run out in a few weeks (wow that was fast) I am weighing the options of leave VNAnd return under a new visa.A couple of questions please-What is the going cost to use a service and since I am Near HCMC, I assume I would go there and ...

Not sure how useful this is to your situation: I watched on utube a U.S. guy do a visa run from Da Nang on an organised bus for this service. Can't remember length of visa he renewed. Around a 12 -15 hr round trip IIRC. I think the service in Da ... Read More

Was thinking of coastal city maybe Da Nang, or similar for accessibility to beach.. Maybe not Nha Trang as it seems to be full of Russians. Good to have the rental search tips too; though personally speaking I have no contacts in VN Read More
