Our purpose

Expats in Ho Chi Minh is an English-language living and travel guide, inspired by the Stay in Vietnam Travel project. It brings together editorial planning suggestions, neighborhood comparisons and travel reading. It is not a government service, property agency or booking provider.

Sources & imagery

Destination background and further reading link to Vietnam Tourism. Check the providers and venues directly for current hours, addresses, availability and terms. Skyline and coffee photographs are from Unsplash. Destination images of city architecture and the Mekong Delta are credited to Vietnam Tourism; the coffee photograph illustrates café culture and does not identify a particular Ho Chi Minh City venue.

Affiliate links

Some outbound links lead to Trip.com using affiliate links from the reference travel project. If you book through them, we may receive a commission at no extra cost to you. Bookings, payments, refunds and support are handled by the provider. No live prices or availability are displayed here.

Privacy & your checklist

The arrival checklist stores its completion state in this browser using local storage. The Reset checklist button clears that state. This site has no signup form and no added analytics or advertising trackers. Hosting services may process technical request information. External sites have their own privacy policies.

Using the guides

Neighborhood and trip suggestions are starting points for your own planning. Travel area labels may differ from current administrative addresses. The content does not determine your immigration, employment or residence eligibility. Consult the relevant authority for those questions.
