Vietnam
 

Is it possible to enter Vietnam with own vehicle?

Many thanks for any assistance

at last word, and for some time now, ONLY if your bike is under 250cc.

sorry...

What I read was 175 cc ... never ben there myself.

I think the best source of information for border crossings in South-East Asia is http://www.gt-rider.com/crossingborders.html - which unfortunately confirms what Grant wrote: "Vietnam Warning since late April 2002, bikes over 175 cc have been refused entry into the country". You can also contact David, the owner of the web site. His email address is on the front page (http://www.gt-rider.com/)

But Vietnam is plenty beautiful and interesting enough for someone cruising in the region to leave his/her long-distance motorcycle in storage in a neighboring country, fly to Hanoi and rent a moped or a small bike for a few weeks. I loved the north of the country more than the south, but they're both well worth the detour. Besides you don't want to miss the traffic in Hanoi: what a blast! Here are 2 videos showing what it looks like:

Many thanks for the useful information.

Does anyone know if it is possible to enter Vietnam with own truck / car?
