I have recently spent some time in Nha Trang and intend to return
in September with thoughts of settling there. Last time I had
a 3 month multiple entry,would that suffice in this case ?
Also is it safe to arrange through net then collect visa on arrival at airport ?

l3ully

There are many ways, expats securing their stay. Depending on occupation/finances they choose commonly:

- overstay
- 3 Month visa / Visa runs
- Marriage (Visa exemption
- Investment / Residency
- Residency / Work permit

Yes, there is a huge percentage of expats here, possible the highest in Vietnam and the "expat industry" is adapted to the needs.

I have been here for 7 months now and simply go to one of the many tour companies to apply for an extension of 3 months. So far so good!!

Please are there any difficulties in obtaining a bank account there ? And how long does it take ? I figure one would have to have a permanent address there ?

l3ully

I know different people with different types of accommodations. I wouldn't bother them unless their rooms are in your budget. There are rooms with no services within a household for 75USD mo or a studio apartment starting at $300 per month up to $700 mo. There are 1 bd apartments starting at
$500 per month etc etc etc etc etc.

And then maybe buy?? Well yes there are units for sale. But here again what the frig are you looking for and how frigin much???

This is why I'm not a realestate agent!!! Too many choices and too many undecided people.

Roberto99

Thanks, studio for $300 sounds good but I know when one is hunting to buy property one does not reveal budgets until he inspects and does some homework !!!

I was not asking you to make a blind offer on an unseen unit. I have a couple of friends who have units available however I do not want to waste their time if there units do not fit your needs. People who dabble normally have just enough information to be a pain in the ars.

Concerning rentals check: boutiqueapartmentsnhatrang.com and nhatrangapartments.com

You can also Google the subject which is what I did while dabbling around!
