Hi and welcome to the forum.

You need a VN driving license.
You can easily convert any of your two licenses into a VN one.
Please check this recent thread for more info.

Cheers!

Your license will only be valid as long as your visa is valid...total pain in the bum for people.

After I got the TRC I converted my driver's license.
As you told the expiry date is the same as at the TSC.
To get a new driver's license after expiration, you have to go through the same procedure as the first time (new conversion)? Or can the driver's license be extended?

As far as I know you have to do the whole process again
