Hi. Personally I wouldn't live in either Hanoi or Saigon, too big and too much traffic for my liking. I live in Da Nang which is considerably smaller and much more beautiful. Da Nang is a very modern and progressive city with 32klms of beach. I ... Read More

Once our lockdown period is over, possibly before that, I'll try a couple of pharmacies in Da Nang to see if they stock it. Wayne Read More

Australian visa for your Vietnamese wife. by Waynesinoz
As an Australian is it easier to get a visa for my Vietnamese wife as a tourist to enter Australia because we a married? I would like to take her to Australia for a one month holiday.
![Waynesinoz Waynesinoz](/forum/img/avatars/2634343.jpg?t=1563612624)
But for now we won't worry about the visa. We'll take another look at it in 6 or 12 months time. No rush! Read More

Well, it's not as lucky as it used to be! Maybe as Colinoscapee suggested, we should get a boat and get them in as political refugees seeking asylum! They'd probably end up better off! But seriously, I only want to take her to Oz for one ... Read More

Thanks Vicnik. We have all the documentation required to get legally married in Vietnam but we are not going to get married for now. She has no wish to live in Australia and that is one of the reasons I considered the relationship. Unfortunately too ... Read More

Hi THIGV. I think it was probably much easier some years ago but from information I've received, it's only got more difficult over the past few years. I do have a plan of attack and that will take some time and careful planning. So in the ... Read More

Yes, this is what I have heard also, so I think we'll probably do the same. Travel to 4 or 5 countries first and then apply for an AU visa. Also to make sure she has a substantial amount in her bank a/c. Cheers 😉👍🏼 Read More

Thank you for your advice. I think we might look at doing something more in the Traditional way before we go down the legal track. We both need to discuss this together and with her family. Cheers 👍🏼 Read More

The thing is , I've found it very hard to get the required information. No one seems to know all the answers and so I all too often feel like I'm walking around in the dark. At this point I can't see a problem with said department as she ... Read More
