CHECK
Before you sign
Many properties come furnished with appliances, and the rent often includes cleaning, linen changes and front-desk service, so you can start living there from the day you sign.
What “included in rent” covers differs by property. In some cases electricity is included up to a set amount, with any excess billed separately.
For trips home or business travel, you need to tell the operator your departure and re-entry dates for temporary residence registration (tạm trú).
