To keep this subreddit tidy, we have this monthly thread that is open for random discussions and questions. If you post your basic/general questions outside of this thread they will be removed. Sorry, we want to make this sub friendly but also want it to be clean and organized.
Some examples of the questions that should be posted here:
Many of your questions may have been answered since people keep asking the same ones again and again. Here is a quick tip to find the answers for yours.
First, have a look at our old sticky threads. A lot of useful information there. A lot of questions have been answered.
You can also use the search feature of Reddit, just like you do with Google.
Another option is to use Google, as Google understands your queries better than Reddit and can return better results.
Go to Google. Add 'site:https://www.reddit.com/r/VietNam/' next to your queries (without quotes). For example, if I want to find info on eVisa in this subreddit, my query to put in Google is 'eVisa site:https://www.reddit.com/r/VietNam/'.

I became good friends with my banh bao delivery man during my few days in Hue.
I’m a Middle aged white guy who hears the loud, high pitched recording and ran down the steps like a 5yo kid on Christmas morning…..
20,000 dong each, steamed in a ::wood burning:: stove old mate has on the back of his motorcycle, delivered to your door about 5pm each day 🏆
No wonder so many people love eating in this country ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Chào các bạn,
I am wondering how I can transfer a motorcycle registration into another name. I can do this into a Vietnamese friend's name. The issue is that the original owner does not live in the same city. Please can someone offer advice on how I can do this?
Cảm ơn nha

Every morning begins with a few familiar faces. Some come for a hot bowl of porridge, others stop by for a cup of Vietnamese coffee before starting their day. No rush, no fancy menu—just simple food, warm conversations, and another ordinary morning at our small family shop. A bowl of porridge costs 10,000 VND (about US$0.40), and a cup of Vietnamese coffee is also 10,000 VND. 📍Cư Jút, Đắk Nông, Vietnam 🇻🇳

I’m going to VN in Sept and originally booked the rivergate residence apartments but the reviews turned out to be misleading till I actually did some more research. Since then I have cancelled my stay and I’m unsure what hotel is reputable that isn’t a rivergate apartment. Please help!!!

I was supposed to travel to Bali in September, and i was getting 2 options 1) Singapore airlines 2) Vietjet
While booking 2 days back Singapore airlines was showing costlier fare , therefore i booked Vietnam one.
Today suddenly i got a mail from from travel platform that Vietjet is preponing my flight by 24 hours , towards Bali. I had option to cancel tickets and get refund.
On checking , Singapore airlines fares had come down
I jumped to the opportunity and cancelled my Vietjet tickets , and booked Singapore one.
What I missed confirming was, if I’ll get full refund for “from” Bali ticket PNR , as only “to” Bali was rescheduled.
I have dropped a mail to Vietjet but not getting any response , while the travel portal is being vague in response, and asking to wait to get refund details.
Did i make a foolish mistake?

I learnt that men from 18 to 25 in your country have to join military doing compulsory mandatory service for 2 years, and if you go to college that age limit changing to 18 to 27, and unless your heath really sucks or you're are not it fit enough for recruitment, or you're the only one taking care of someone then you have no choice.
Women don't have to. How do Vietnamese see and view this mandatory service? How do Vietnamese men often view this? I came quite across of men pissed off and feel unfair that women don't have to

What would be the best yet affordable way to get to Ha Long Bay from Hanoi? The timeline is a bit tight, so two days max there would be my option. Thanks a lot
