How to travel by land from China to Vietnam ?

There are more and more people choose to travel by land between Vietnam and China as it seems to be quite easy because there are quite a lot of Vietnam - China border crossings. These borders are very crowded every time and known as ideal places for doing business.

There are three border crossings between China and Vietnam, namely Mong Cai (Vietnam)/ Dong Hung (China), Dong Dang/ Ping Xian, and Lao Cai/ Hekou.

All border crossings are in the Northeast of Vietnam. It is easy to get to Mong Cai from Quang Ninh province or Halong City while from Sapa, Lao Cai, tourists could find the fastest way to Kunning through Lao Cai/Hekou border gate. If departing from Lang Son and heading to China, you had better to get to Dong Dang/ Ping Xian border gate and conversely, coming from China through Dong Dang border gate, you certainly get to Hanoi easily thanks to a variety of buses or trains.

Even there is definitely a train from Nanning to Hanoi and it departs every Monday and Friday, you just need to buy ticket in Nanning in advance for  a better trip in case it is very crowded. This is also by far the cheapest way to travel from China to Vietnam.

If you are a Chinese citizen, you must be in possession of a Vietnam visa. As you travel by land, it is required to get a Vietnam visa in your hand before you leave China.You can apply for Vietnam visa at the Consulate of Vietnam :

Address: GuangXi Investment Building, Floor 3, 109 Minzu Dadao, NanNing, GuangXi Zhuang Auto Region 530000

Tel: +86-(0)-138-7710-0849


Getting Vietnam visa at Vietnam Embassy/ Consulate is quite time-consuming and costly especially not conveniently for those living far from Embassy/Consulate. However, if you take a plane to Vietnam, you have a better choice to get Vietnam visa, that is Vietnam visa on arrival. You just need to submit a Vietnamese visa application form online. You pay for service fee and get Vietnam visa approval letter via email. This will be enough for you to get on the plane and then get Vietnam visa stamped on your passport once you arrive in Vietnam.

Temporary residence registration for foreigners in Vietnam

Recently, my US client called me and ask if he needs to register his residence in the flat that is rent under his Vietnamese girlfriend's name ? YES or NO ? In reality, even Vietnamese, they do not know about Vietnamese law, till they are questioned by policeman, they know that what they are doing is not Right. Many foreigners stay for quite a long time in Vietnam and do not register their stay until they are asked by police officer then pay expensive fine. These people again blame on the landlord and other agents for not reminding them to do temporary resident registration. According to Vietnamese law, foreigners must register their stay wherever they spend night(s) in Vietnam.
