Inbound Tour Operator Licence

Warning: All Vietnamese tourism companies dealing with international travelers are required to obtain an inbound operating licence. In practice, some 'rogue' companies do not apply. They touch tourists directly by using some low-cost sales channels like web forums, phone calls, direct encounter at some scenic areas. Some trendy illegal companies also make a simple travel website and contact the internet travelers directly! Nobody likes being cheated by unscrupulous companies that try to bend or break the rules. Tourists are highly advised to check the Inbound Tour Operator Licence before making a payment if you don't want to go through a shill.
