jphasia 192 Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 Since I have been relocated in Vietnam for my job, arrived here beginning of October, i already got my work permit, trc. Now, I would like to get a local driving license. I have read that it is quite easy. You need your passport, visa valid for at least 3 months, and your original country driving license. I came with a 3 months business visa, got a 2 years work permit and 2 years trc. One my friend told me he used an agent. He paid 2 millions VND. Gave his passport and original country driving license. He went to the driving license office only 1 time and after a week got his Vietnamese driving license. Is it the best procedure to do? I am based in HCMC 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I am driving here already using my Thai driving license but as I am going to stay here for a while, i will get a local license Link to post Share on other sites

Actually I did and the friend I mentioned is the CEO of the company. I am just checking out if someone has more experience on that. I posted on this forum in Vietnam section as I believe this is the purpose of this section. Link to post Share on other sites

I was actually backing you up (pretty obvious I thought from the post I made directly prior to the one you quoted) and extracting the urine from the person I quoted (a common trait between Aussies) - the glasses, as perhaps he needs them to see this is in the Vietnam section, the style of glasses (Dame Edna glasses) for calling you possum (as Dame Edna likes to address people). 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I actually got better advises on other forum. Thanks for your participation anyway. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
