Rules in force · 8Drug trafficking can carry the death penalty in Singapore…Do the royal tombs by car or with a driver before 11
  • Southeast Asia ↗Drug trafficking can carry the death penalty in Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, Vietnam, Laos, Thailand, Brunei and Myanmar; never carry a bag or parcel for anyone.
  • Southeast Asia ↗Carry a passport valid for at least six months from entry with two blank pages; airlines refuse boarding on less.
  • Vietnam ↗Apply for the e-visa only on the official government portal; lookalike sites charge extra.
  • Vietnam ↗Crossing streets: walk slowly and steadily; motorbikes flow around you — do not stop or run.
  • Vietnam ↗Carry Vietnamese đồng in small notes; many stalls and taxis are cash-only.
  • Central Coast ↗September–December is typhoon and flood season on this coast: build a spare day into any plan and check the storm forecast before booking boats, passes or beach nights.
  • Hue ↗Do the royal tombs by car or with a driver before 11:00; they are 6–12 km apart with little shade, and cycling them in summer heat ends most afternoons early.
  • Hue ↗October–November is Huế's rainiest time: floods can close the tombs and roads for a day or more, so keep a spare day or come in another season.
