Thanks for this update. This is exactly what I've been waiting for. Vietnam authorities took their time but at least thewait was worth it. It's a very positive outcome. The 45 day visa free option is a real bonus. Please post more videos. Interested to see how things are going over there for you.
Good day Chris, Good to see you again I wonder what happened to you. Finally the wait is over. Hope Australia is on the visa free entry even better Look forward to your up coming videos Cheers Louis Kats your number 1 Fan in Australia 👍 😊 🇦🇺 🇨🇦
yup, saw it in the papers.. great news!!!! look forward to coming back next yr.. and maybe retiring there in a couple yrs!! at least 90 days is better than 30 days.. still no 1yr retirement visas but 1 step at a time!
Finally! Incomprehensible why this decision has been so long in coming. Better late than never I suppose. But too late for me my travel plans are set and I will enter Vietnam early in August before heading to Thailand and Laos in September. I look forward to seeing the details.
Hey Chris, where in Vietnam do u recommand for me+wife+11months child in januart-feb 2024 Tet time? Glad to see u post again! Hope they dont shadow ban you and stuff....
Hey Buddy, Having been using LUMA travel insurance since your recommendation and taking out a six month pass, and then renewing the six month pass, and they taking payment for same, when trying to extend again, they mentioned that there is a dodgy small print in the conditions that say you CANT have insurance OVER 180 days, but have some weird way around this but a WARNING to those ppl like me intending to stay a while, you might have an ASEAN PASS, but might not be able to claim as insurance companies do their very best NEVER to pay . The ASEAN pass is NOT intended for long term stayers, Im now looking for a less sus company to insure with.
Great to see your videos again. Re: the 90 day tourist visa - there has been 'chat' on a Facebook page that the new 90 day tourist evisa will come with a 90 day exclusion period at the expiry. That is, no 'visa run' to renew. Have you heard anything about this please?
Fantastic news, even if I would have loved to hear this before coming here on a 1-month visa :) Since I'm in 🇻🇳 right now on a current eVisa, do you know if I'll be able to apply for a new visa after August 15th? Can a tourist visa be granted twice in the same year? 🤔
Hi Chris, the visa news is very welcome. Thank you for the update. Could you tell us more about your ebike? I believe you assembled it yourself. Were parts available in Vietnam? Would you recommend the model you chose etc? Cheers
Can a foreigner buy an electric bicycle or scooter? How fast can you drive using an electric bicycle? I could tell your ebike is slower than the normal traffic on the street.

Was in Da Nang in Feb. Loved it. Can't wait to visit Vietnam again.
yup, saw it in the papers.. great news!!!! look forward to coming back next yr.. and maybe retiring there in a couple yrs!! at least 90 days is better than 30 days.. still no 1yr retirement visas but 1 step at a time!
Nice one Chris. thanks for the update.
I hope we can apply before Aug 15, and get 90 days visa. Of course arrive after Aug 15.
NO
You can only apply for 90 days on or after Aug 15.....to my knowledge.
I'm in the same position.
Should I be wrong, please let me know.
Cheers
@@norbertschmitz3358 yes, would be nice, if we can apply early. Save on flight ticket..
This is good news, I’ve been back to Da Nang twice past three months
Great news, finally!

Everything here soooo slow...
Believe it or not, I miss your E bike🚴♂ videos. Please bring it back for old times sake🙏
I will-it's getting a bit rusty now from the humid and hot/salty Da Nang air. Will have to make some repairs again soon.

I haven't seen anything about that yet-think just speculation at this point.

Coming soon!
Thanks for the information. May I ask the location in this video ? It seems so quite. I plan to move to Da Nang in the near distant future.
This in in Da Nang in a residential area near the main river

How much are District 2 Apartments ?
Upto your budget.
Visas in Vietname are super expensive. Crazy 150 usd for one. Just insane. A good reason not visit if you are traveling on a budget.
The current 30 day Evisa is $25 USD...
