Hello there..
I wanted to stay with my girlfriend in an apartment together, but my employer told me it is illegal in Viet Nam for a couple to live together if they are not married! Is that true???

Hello guys..
Thanks you all.. I really appreciate your answers.. and it feels good to know there is a helpful, active and funny community like "NewHanoians" waiting for me..
I understood that it will not be a problem staying together as long as we arrange everything with the landlord. But I recently contacted a real estate company in Hanoi and they seem pretty formal.. they want me to fill applications and to give papers.. I think they will as about the marriage certificate too! Well, I started thinking of another idea: living in two separate apartments but in the same building.. so this way, we are officially living separately.. but can have "long" visits to each other.. is there anything wrong with that?
A nice trick, isn't it?!
Thanks,
Karim

I'm an Egyptian architect, doing masters degree in Italy and I am coming to Viet Nam for a 3-months internship period in Hanoi! I hope it will be a good refuge from boring europe :)
