Visitors to Vietnam should pay attention to the following advice.

Socializing

Vietnamese people like to ask questions about age, marriage, salary, etc when they meet someone for the first time. For example, they may ask, 'How old are you?', 'Are you married?', 'What do you do for a living?', 'Do you have any children?' Don't be embarrassed by these kinds of questions. This is the Vietnamese way of being friendly.

Presents

Vietnamese people always show their gratitude when receiving a gift. However, you should not be surprised if they do not open a present you had given them immediately. Opening a present in front of the gift-giver is considered to be embarrassing.

Always show the elderly respect. Bowing your head slightly to an elderly person is a sign of respect. During a meal, elderly people should be served first.
