A good news for US passport holders as the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is expected to approve the proposal to issue a one-year visa for US visitors and businessman. The purpose is to encourage more leisure and business travel and this is due to the complaint from AmCharm Vietnam (American Chamber of Commerce) that the current regulations for visa to Vietnam for American passport holders is not convenient. The US market is one of the top five sources tourism with 446,322 US travelers visiting Vietnam, January to November, this year, an increase of 9.7% during the same period last year.
Starting 1 July, citizens from the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Spain and Italy weregranted visa exemptions to visit Vietnam for up to 15 days. That particular waiver applies for one year. This good news is still being considered but quickvietnamvisa.net hopes that, there will be more and more tourists from US to come to Vietnam in the near future as Vietnam is one of the most beautiful countries in Southeast Asia with nice beaches, rich culture & tradition as well as many World Heritage Sites and friendly people.

The need of travelling of local people during this time is triple times as normal days so it is easy to get fully booked for all travelling services like train, plane and public transportations.  Our advice is to plane and confirm all services to a local tour operator as early as possible.
2. Be aware that, shops, restaurants, markets, stores and companies CLOSED
This is the traditional festival, the time for families’ reunion, the time to visit relatives and friends. So most Vietnamese people will put aside the works and only spend time for holidays. You should know this in advance but there will be a chance when you contact directly to hotel you are staying for meals. Some restaurants closed for 1-2 days, but some companies will be closed up to ten days, depended on the services they are offering.
3. Buying and bargaining.
The selling of the very first days of the new year is very important to Vietnamese as they concept that, a happy and good trading is the best sign for the whole year coming. So, if you decide to buy one thing, let’s ask them and buy, if not, please do not ask. You are advised not to bargain so much as you will be considered to bring more troublesome to them.
4. Money and spending money
Be sure that, you have enough cash (USD or Vietnam Dong) before to spend dung a week. Banks and exchange counters will be closed and you will have to change money at hotels with bad exchange rates.Most things are more expensive than usual so please do not expect a good price if you want to buy anything during Tey holidays.
5. Pickpockets & thefts 
Do not bring much money when you go out these days, be careful of your value things like cell phone and camera. It is time many people go out, walking on the streets and it is good chance for thefts.
