Hi everyone,
I'm planning a trip to Vietnam with my boyfriend this summer. I'm American, and he's a Vietnamese citizen currently living in the US. While researching hotels, I came upon this law:
Under Vietnamese law, a guest who is not a Vietnamese citizen cannot share a room with a Vietnamese citizen without proof of marriage to each other. Otherwise, a second room must be booked.
I've done some research (mainly google searches and reading message boards), and I've learned that this is mainly to prevent prostitution. All the information I can find pertains to couples where the woman is Vietnamese and the man is another nationality, but I can't find anything useful for my current situation.
Given that the white girl is clearly not a Vietnamese prostitute (and that hopefully no one would think my boyfriend was a male prostitute!), do you think we'll have any trouble sharing a room?
Thanks for your help!
