Just wondering if there are same-day services using air traffic for documents?

Thanks,
Chris

Disproportionately expensive.

You are far better using the VN PO's Express Mail Service (EMS) which serves the most densely populated provinces with next day or 2-day service delivered to the addressee's premises.

Delivery between Ha Noi and HCM is typically next day, whereas when surface transport is used, say Ha Noi to Cha Pa (Sa Pa) it is usually 2-days. Likewise, HCM to Ha Tien (320 kilometres) is 2-days and HCM to Phu Quoc Island is often 1-day.

You can use the VNQuickpost service which is DHL and VN PO in disguise. Typically next day to major towns in all provinces.

Your Main Post Office in sunny Hai Phong (or Ha Long) is your access point.
