Of course Foreigners can open their own business, it just takes longer and costs more....

OP you might want to consider getting a Vietnamese partner though. TBH you will find the rents will be cheaper and less hassle from others if you do.
Rents in that area are high, and higher still for foreigners....

thanks about that information:)

It basically depends what kind of business you want to open. Some business activities cannot be accessed by foreigners...

Go to Pham Ngu Lao and get to know some of the people in that area, the more influential the better.  Then, run your plans through him or her and find out what it will cost you...
