    Provider checklist — Vietnam

    Last updated:

    Ask these questions in writing before you book. A reputable provider will answer them clearly. Evasion or vague responses are a red flag.

    • Who is the specific Vietnamese partner school / NGO?
    • What's the legal basis for unpaid teaching — Vietnam has tightened rules on English-language work in recent years?
    • What visa do you recommend, and how is the volunteer-vs-work distinction handled?
    • Is the partner organisation registered with the Vietnamese Ministry of Education or other relevant body?
