Re-launch of expat.vn

We listened to what you want and have tried to adapt to these needs. This lead to a new version of expat.vn where we have scrapped the forum and focused more on better content and a variety of request forms in order to get the right information as fast as possible. We realized that a lot of expats want to start their own business in Vietnam so we have started a handy step by step guide on that topic. With your comments it will grow and become the best source of information for newcomer entrepreneurs.

Content wise we have decided to focus a bit on creating articles related to being an expat in Vietnam. This  and our travel guide about Mui Ne are the first ones, and the following ones will cover everything from banking in Vietnam to how the new personal income tax system works. If you have a topic you want us to dig into, comment below or drop us a line at hello at expat.vn. To replace the interactivity of the forum, we have added a FAQ page where you can ask any question, and we made it possible to comment on individual pages & articles.  We also created RSS feeds so that it is very easy to subscribe to both site content & comments to individual articles and travel guides.

Last but not least, we want to thank all our customers for a great first year. A memorable event was when we had the opportunity to sponsor the charity event organized by Saigon Scooter Centre. Enjoy some pictures here:

And as always, the best way to show that you like what we do, is link to us and spread our url. We hope you love the new version as much as we do. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated, good and bad.
