One of the top concerns for students studying away from home is housing — including location, safety, convenience of transportation, and surrounding amenities. For international students coming to Vietnam, the choice of accommodation also involves complying with legal requirements such as temporary residence registration under local regulations.
Therefore, choosing accommodation is not just about finding a place to live — it’s about ensuring all necessary conditions are met so international students can feel secure, supported, and fully focused on their studies while living in a new country.
