So as of 1st July the new 1 month stamp requirement on tourist visa's came into effect (I think)......so what about visa extensions, I have a 3 months tourist visa extension runs out 8th Aug, but am I supposed to get an exit (or what ever its ...

flothus

So if those exemptions are solely for pushing people out and I can't guarantee my leave until January, my only option might be going with those agents. Well, at least I will try to get my complain to a higher instance. Maybe I'm lucky and ... Read More

Has anybody experience with becoming eligible for the automatic extension "program" with an entrance date prior March 1.? I entered in February and have been extending through agents so far. It's probably pretty hard to get clients ... Read More

Where to buy fairly priced electronics? (monitors, harddrives, etc.) by flothus

I'm looking for a shop that has a variety of electronics at fair prices. All the shops that have been recommended to me only seem to have the latest tech at slightly overpriced rates. Are there any shops which sell things with reasonable ...

flothus

Yes yes, I absolutely should, unfortunately I have to keep using it at least until the next deadline is done. I already checked if it's possible to get a replacement device but it's just very complicated with those things in Da Nang. What ... Read More

I guess I should have taken that advice earlier. I have some slight stray current on the case of MacBook and the battery is slightly bulging. Could be some improper insulation on the board. But I was also wondering if it could have something to do ... Read More

A big part of why electronics seem overpriced in Vietnam is import tariffs. Electronics that are made in Vietnam just enjoy the higher prices. I suppose the government attitude is the common one to apply taxes where there is an ability to pay. ... Read More
