Hi, I visited one hospital for health consultation this afternoon and they charge me 2 000 000 VND. Why? (because I am foreigner).聽 I think it is really expensive. Does anyone here knows how much the standard cost to see a doctor for health check up is as foreigner in Vietnam (Danang).聽 Can anyone recommend any hospital that doesn't go this amount by far? I don't really have illness. I just need to get medical certificate as job requirement.

The establishment where you get the health check is pre-determined by the government office that issues your TRC and WP. You might not be able to change locations. You're probably not allowed to go to a local clinic.

Be prepared to go in the morning and take a VN person with you. Your employer should provide you with one. This will likely take your entire day.

There are two color papers that are required for work: blue and yellow. You only need the yellow, which is cheaper than the blue.

Furthermore, carefully review your contract. You could get your employer to reimburse you for it,

B茅t 貌 luck.

It seems your price is high but inside, barely, the HCMC range.聽 I went to Thong Nhat myself.聽 They had signs specially made in English directing you to each station.聽 Rather accommodating.

I didn't work for VUS but I found this to be an excellent flow chart for getting a WP.聽 I realize you are in Da Nang but it still might be worthwhile for you to pull it down.聽 The link to the chart is near the bottom of this page:聽
