It is possible but not legal, so we cannot promote that information in the forum (forum code of conduct doesn't allow it).

The best advice I can give is to ask trustworthy Vietnamese friends how they would do it.

They will almost certainly be able to help you figure out a solution.

"I learned that only foreigners who work and have a sallery here are entitiled to do that, that I cannnot if on a tourist visa only )"

Not quite true.

脤f you put the money into a VN account and never touched it, you can send back the money you originally sent to VN.If you took it out, then put it back in, you will need to show a papertrail.
