Vietnam travel supplies: 4 things you must prepare

What kind of travel supplies does Vietnam need?
Vietnam needs relatively different travel supplies.
Vietnam, which is three times bigger than Korea and still adopts socialism, needs relatively different travel supplies.
Please prepare the following four things and have a fun and safe trip to Vietnam.


1. flight ticket from Vietnam to another country

In Vietnam, you must present your flight ticket with the departure date during immigration.

It's best to print it out, and if not, you can capture your return ticket in advance in your smartphone and show it to us.

At first glance, it seems very natural, but surprisingly, many people only bring one-way tickets when entering Vietnam.

Most of them have made plans to travel to Laos and Cambodia by bus. First of all, one of the following is essential for Vietnamese immigration.

You must be able to prove leaving Vietnam within the visa-free or expiration period, even if it is not necessarily an air ticket.

If you enter Vietnam with only a one-way ticket without a Vietnamese visa, in the worst case scenario, you may be denied entry at the immigration screening.

By law, foreigners are required to report their residence to the public security to prevent crimes when they live in Vietnam. (The hotel or lodging will take care of it.)

If you come to Vietnam with only a one-way ticket and commit a crime, you may have a problem, so if you don't have a visa, you must have a ticket to return home.

If you don't have a return ticket, the immigration desk will be very persistent in asking you. Before your visa expires, you can expect to leave for another country, or you can expect to leave for another country, such as Cambodia.

The most common mistake is when you have a flight ticket to leave the country a day or two after your visa expires because you misunderstand the visa-free period.

Even if you make a reservation through a travel agency, it often happens by mistake. How long is the visa-free period in Vietnam? Please refer to the article to make a reservation, and make sure to check the ticket after making a reservation.

Please refer to the Vietnam visa link for information on the Vietnam visa.)

If you get caught during immigration, most of them can be done with money. Immigration offices often ask for it first.

The cost varies greatly from person to person. Sometimes you ask for $10, sometimes you ask for $50.

Still, if you really only visit with a one-way ticket, you have to make a minimum preparation for any excuse or anything.

3. Anti-theft products

medication

In many ways, it is a must-have product for travel to Vietnam. It is not difficult to buy medicine in Vietnam.

The pharmacy is well established, affordable, and no prescription is required.

Since we don't have the ability to produce drugs in Vietnam, we have a lot of imported drugs, mainly French drugs.

However, the problem is that it's very difficult to explain the symptoms when you need the medication, and it's quite disturbing because it prescribes more than 5 types of medication even though you just have a cough.

Personally, the medicine you must bring is the 'dialectic', which may have symptoms of replacement, so it is recommended to prepare.

The wiki says the symptoms of water replacement are different from those of water consumed in Korea and in other countries (overseas), causing diarrhea (or normal),

Vietnam's water is very bad compared to Korea, so these water changes can easily occur. So it's a good idea to prepare laxatives.

In addition, it is recommended to prepare some painkillers or headache pills when you visit. And I recommend you to take anthelmintics when you return to Korea.

It's a good medicine to take to Vietnam

  • a laxative

  • Cough medicine (cough medicine)

  • a headache pill


3. Anti-theft products

Anti-theft products

Vietnam has a lot of small-scale crimes. The most common crime among them is the so-called "snatching."

There are cases where you approach in groups of two and take out your wallet or cell phone in your pocket, or you can use a motorcycle to take it away.

So be prepared to prevent snatching as much as possible. For example, there are a belly band, backpack, and hand strip of a digital camera.

Make sure you put safety before fashion, so prepare this kind of bag!

Block snatching in advance using a belly band or backpack, and when taking a picture, you must hold it and take it using a hand strap.

Recently, there are people who take pictures or videos and upload them on Facebook or Instagram at the same time,

This is the easiest target for snatching, so it's better to post it later.

If you haven't included it in your Vietnam travel package yet, make sure to bring it with you. You may lose a lot of money if you try to save a little.

If you can't be bothered to buy it, at least hold your phone as tightly as possible during filming.

What you can't do on the street in Vietnam

If you do the following on a tourist street where foreigners usually gather, it's only a matter of time before you get pickpocketed.

- Selfies and videos with a selfie stick

- Put your arms forward, hold your phone, take a picture, and take a video

- Walking with a cell phone in your hand

- Walking with your phone in your back pocket

- Walking while talking on the phone


4. traveler's insurance

traveler's insurance

Unlike advanced countries abroad, Vietnam is one of the countries that require overseas traveler insurance. First of all, you can receive a certain amount of compensation even if your belongings are stolen through insurance.

And in Vietnam, where there is no concept of hygiene yet, you may get sick from eating wrong food. If you visit a local hospital, you will have to pay a huge amount of medical expenses.

In that sense, I recommend you to purchase traveler's insurance. For more information, why should I purchase overseas traveler's insurance? In the article, I explained in detail the price by period and how to sign up.

As more and more people abuse how effective these traveler's insurance policies are, especially in terms of the coverage part of mobile phones, compensation policies and standards are changing frequently every year.

So make sure to check the compensation in detail.
