Vietnam – Property Letting

Vietnam is a rapidly developing country that offers many opportunities for property owners to let their properties. However, like any country, there are certain regulations and procedures that must be followed to legally let a property. In this article, we will answer some commonly asked questions about property letting in Vietnam.

Letting Process in Vietnam

The letting process in Vietnam typically involves the following steps:

  • Finding a Tenant: The first step in letting a property is to find a suitable tenant. This can be done through advertising on property websites or through a real estate agent.

  • Signing a Contract: Once a tenant is found, a contract must be signed between the landlord and the tenant. The contract will outline the terms and conditions of the lease, including the rental amount, payment schedule, and duration of the lease.

  • Collecting a Deposit: In Vietnam, it is common practice to collect a deposit from the tenant, typically equivalent to two or three months’ rent.

  • Furnishings: The landlord is responsible for providing basic furnishings, such as a bed, table, and chairs. Any additional furnishings must be agreed upon between the landlord and the tenant.

  • Maintenance and Cleaning: The landlord is responsible for maintaining the property and ensuring that it is clean and in good condition for the tenant.

  • Rental Rates: Rental rates in Vietnam vary depending on the location and type of property. It is recommended to research the market rates in the area before setting the rental price.

License Requirements

In Vietnam, there is no specific license required to let a property. However, landlords must comply with local regulations and obtain the necessary permits for their property.

Procedure for Obtaining a Permit

The procedure for obtaining a permit to let a property in Vietnam varies depending on the location. Generally, the landlord must obtain a permit from the local government and comply with any building codes or regulations. It is recommended to consult with a local real estate agent or lawyer for guidance on the specific requirements in your area.

Conclusion

Letting a property in Vietnam can be a profitable venture for landlords, but it is important to follow the proper procedures and regulations. By finding a suitable tenant, signing a contract, collecting a deposit, and maintaining the property, landlords can ensure a successful letting experience. Additionally, obtaining the necessary permits and complying with local regulations is essential for legal operation.

Writer and Editor Kirsten Raccuia is known for her Sand in My Curls blog, which until recently, was all about her expat life in Malaysia. We last spoke at the height of the global pandemic, when she and her husband were closing in on a decade in Penang. Fast-forward a couple of years, and they’re in a new country, Mexico. I’m chatting with Kirsten again to find out what factors influenced their decision to move, and why Mexico? And what it was like to close the Malaysia chapter of their life abroad.

A topic that comes up quite often in our Facebook groups is moving abroad with children. What’s the ideal age? Especially if they're going to need to learn a new language? What about the best time of year to move? And how do you make the assimilation process, from learning new cultural norms to making new friends, as smooth and enjoyable as possible? My guest today is someone who can speak from experience. Sharon Green is the founding editor of online publication SHE DEFINED. And in 1998, just before she turned 12, Sharon migrated with her family from Durban in South Africa to Melbourne in Australia. Sharon’s going to share her experience of being a third culture kid, and how it has shaped her sense of belonging as an adult.
