A draft decree on managing foreign visitors' vehicles by the Ministry of Transport is expected to allow foreigners to arrive in Viet Nam in their own cars and motorbikes.

If the decree is approved by the Government, travellers' vehicles will be allowed for a maximum of 30 days though they have to move in groups organised by local tour operators.

The vehicles will have to get technical safety and environmental protection certificates, registration and insurance papers, and temporary import documents.-VNS
