I've been married to a VN national and have resided in the country 20 years, I'm still a Temporary Resident. In Vietnam, nothing is permanent. Pay your money and takes your chances.
Your wife must have her own legal residence, not her parents'. Ensure the minimum housing area conditions as prescribed by the Provincial People's Council but not less than 08 m2 of floor space/person.
Before, in Cambodia, if you wanted to stay a long time, you would get a business visa and renew it every year. Many got it even though they weren't in any kind of business including being a teacher. About eight years ago, they changed it so that you'd have to show some kind of business and pay taxes. They do offer a retirement visa now, which they did not have before. I lived there for nine years but left in 2017.
@@mikelam1677 I loved it. My daughter was born there. We are living in the US, and when she graduates from high school (three years), I might move there again.
Let’s say if someone moves to Paraguay, & not too long after they decide they want to make it their home. Is there a fast track process for permanent residency in Paraguay? Or must one live on temporary residency for a certain time period until they’re eligible for it?
The key takeaway is that his lawyer didn't tell him the full story. His lawyer reassured him that his residency permit is renewable, even under the circumstances of him not generating much volume. He was misled.
So you're saying that in Paraguay it's relatively simple to obtain temporary residency but for the permanent residency you need to have some business running? Thanks and keep up the good work!
Given the dynamics of Southeast Asia's real estate markets, including the crazy amount of empty units in Vietnam, Malaysia, and the Philippines, you're much better off renting there. Many properties may not appreciate enough to keep up with inflation.
Permanent residency is achievable in the Philippines and Cambodia. The rest is questionable at best. There are more options in Europe and Latin America than in Southeast Asia.
I an Vietnamese. The problem here is that you do not understand the law of Vietnam and leave everything to the lawyer, do not find the right company or a real/ good lawyer... and the Vietnamese government did not do anything wrong... the mistake is that you did not follow the law because you trusted the lawyer too much. If you marry a Vietnamese woman, after 3 years, your wife will sponsor you to do the procedures to become a permanent resident. Please should study carefully about the country's law, legal regulations before coming to any countries .... You can do yourself, no need service company or lawyer... Dont blame our government if you did not know anything directly and clearly
Vietnam currently does not issue a PRC (10 years) for foreigners married to Vietnamese. The maximum duration is currently a 3 year TRC for all marriage based requests. In the past it was possible to request permanent residence after 3 years of marriage and living in Vietnam ( to a 10 year PRC), however this option has been discontinued until further notice, The only way for a foreigner to apply for permanent residence who is married to a Vietnamese, is to apply for Vietnamese citizenship, which also carries various restrictions. Greetings from Sài Gòn.
Southeast Asia is one of the most popular destinations for Westerners who come as digital nomads, especially in Chiang Mai and Bali. The government should tax these digital nomads, as they don't pay taxes and contribute little to the GDP. The Malaysian government recently introduced a digital nomad visa with very low requirements, which is ridiculous and should be revoked immediately.

It's basic logic no profits = no taxes being paid = no business = no long permit to stay you are just a tourist, not a biz owner anymore.

Why? After 3 years, your wife can apply for you to get the permanent residence, please read the law of Vietnam carefully. I am Vietnamese
@@BOBANaturals can not. Being Vietnamese doesn't mean you know anything.
Please read the laws here
Depend on your wife condition, you need to clear the reason, not only sau in general, we have some regulation for applying the residence too.
Your wife must have her own legal residence, not her parents'. Ensure the minimum housing area conditions as prescribed by the Provincial People's Council but not less than 08 m2 of floor space/person.

How does one stay in Cambodia long term these days?
Do you miss Cambodia?
The more popular the country, the harder it becomes to acquire or keep the residency permit!
There is a lot of truth to your statement for sure!
@@NomadElite Once the permanent residence is achieved you feel its safe to stop using the business?

The more country has to offer the more requirements

Vietnam has no good long term visa policies
Vietnam doesn't have a retirement visa.
He wasn't running a real business. They were correct to revoke it.

Sure I am a paraguayan PR Holder and What he says is 100 percent is right!!
Paraguay permanent residency requires a $70,000 investment in a local enterprise.
You can't buy property in Vietnam as a foreigner so why bother to become their residency
Given the dynamics of Southeast Asia's real estate markets, including the crazy amount of empty units in Vietnam, Malaysia, and the Philippines, you're much better off renting there. Many properties may not appreciate enough to keep up with inflation.
You can’t buy property as a local either. It’s a communist country. You do not own the land. You only have a license to use the land.
sure u can
I'm desperate to get ANY PR or citizenship in ANY country!!! Ideally for my whole family.
What country you from?

No tax = No joy
Interesting
Vietnamese authorities lied to him about something important? 😮 😢 Shocking, said no one...
His lawyer was not fully transparent about the issue at hand.
The lawyer not Government please... you should do your self or find a true lawyer.... bad lawyer everywhere not only Vietnam...
Don't bother with Vietnam. Choose another country where it's easier to stay long term.
