Legislation: There appears to be no written legislation reguarding the control of marijuana, coupled with the fact that there is one police station in the town in which the police seem to just sit and play cards all day, nha trang is the place in vietnam for getting high.
Law enforcement: Practically none
Where to buy marijuana in Nha Trang: Almost imediatley it will be offered to you on the street by one or two of the constant hawkers, generally at night. You will more than likely be expected to bargin with these guys. If it is not offered to you within the first hour and you’re desparate go out and ask around other tourists but there is probably no need.
Another reporter added: “My first week in Nha Trang a motorbike driver offered to sell me marijuana 20 feet away from a police officer. I replied, “Uh, no.” I probably would have been safe had a bought it but I didn’t want to take the chance. If caught, just bribe your way out of it. There is so much marijuana in Nha Trang that the police HAVE to know about it. But be careful. ”
Where to buy Marijuana: It’s offered to Westerners as they leave bars and clubs by motorbike drivers at an fantastically alarming rate. At night, “You want motorbike ride?” is almost always followed by “You smoke marijuana?”
Marijuana prices: 100,000vdn for a nice half oz bag. ($6). Don’t expect to pay much more
Another reporter added: “$5 = three or four small joints. The catch? Drug dealing motorbike drivers require the money up front before fetching the product. That’s right, they don’t carry the stuff on them. Which means? Westerners have no idea the quality of the bud they are buying, or even if the motorbike driver will come back. ”
Marijuana brands: Brands? Uh. During Nha Trang’s rainy season, the cannibis is leafy, seedy, brown colored garbage. So much so that I tried to smoke some of it in a good sized joint during my first week here but only got through about half of it before chucking it into the ocean gladly. Cough, cough. The marijuana here makes Topeka, Kansas schwag look like the bomb. The weed is so terrible that people have to mix it with tobacco in order for a rolling paper to burn properly. I was told by a good source that after the rainy season is over the skunk will be back through. I hope so. I’m here for six months teaching English, so I’ll be sure to send a report after the rainy season’s over.
More information: Watch where you smoke it although bars may seem relaxed the best place is the beach at night or your room.

More information: while prostitution has virtually become a major industry in Hulong Bay, the weed trade was left behing t rot and die.
Don’t even try to find it here. it’s grossly frowned on by the locals, who focus on getting you laid, NOT stoned. My advice to you is grab some of the really crappy stuff from Hanoi and smoke it only in your room, or even better, bring some up fron Nha Trang, where it flows like honey.
Also, forget about Hue’ and Hoi An. Trust me friend, all you will be able to get is some aromatic leaf of some sort that is so remotely reminisant of the sweet weed you may be fooled into getting it. DONT. It WILL NOT even come close to getting you high in any way, shape or form.
Again, your best bet is to bring some from Hanoi or even better, Nha Trang. And rememeber- never cross borders. EVER. It aint worth it, brother. All best.

Legislation: Marijuana is illegal in Vietnam, as well as most other social vices. The penalties in the books are very strict, however the police seems to look the other way or will ask for a small negotiable bribe. The big problem in this country is opium and heroin so marijuana is not the police’s first priority.
Law Enforcement: Marijuana is illegal to sell in Vietnam, and it is technically illegal to possess. Normally the cops don’t care what foreigners do, but we have heard of some people getting into serious trouble. Smoking in some bars and pubs used to be absolutely OK, but things are changing as the city gets more tourism, so check with the local expats first. Two to three times a year the cops decide to crack down on social vices and nothing is available for a week or so, but usually there is a warning.
Our most recent report is: “The Vietnamese Government aren’t too bothered about the “white” tourist industry: they are preparing to become a major destination for the emerging Chinese tourist industry. So dont expect oo much patience or lenience if you get saught. Although it’s most likely you’ll serve some time and be deported, bear in mind that you can be executed for drug use in Vietnam. Be careful. Having said which, police seemed hardly interested in tourists.”
Where to Buy Marijuana in Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon): In Saigon it is very easy to buy Marijuana, but be careful because it is also very easy to get ripped off. For small quantities of very low quality goods many of the cyclo (rickshaw) drivers and motorcycle taxi drivers can help you out. Be careful as many of these guys are depraved heroin and opium addicts and have been known to mug foreigners looking for girls or ganja. Always check the merchandise first: they will rip you off, but don’t let them rip you off too much. Remember bargaining is normal. Note that heroine is also sold and used in this area, so be careful, there are needles on the ground and the disastrous actions of addicts .
Our most recent report is: “From the roving booksellers. These guys walk around with a stack of books and pop in and out of cafes, restaurants and other touruist hang-outs in the back-packers areas. Ask. Sometimes they will offer without asking. Very easy to buy weed in HCMC”
Ho Chi Minh City Marijuana Prices and brands: The cyclo and motorcycle taxi drivers offer grass, but the quality is always unreliable. For 50,000 Dong (3USD) you will get a good 10 grams or more. Beware the quality is very low, but is worth it for shits and giggles. Hash is rare and usually expensive. An interesting note, papers are very hard to find, perhaps it is a good idea to bring your own papers to skin up with.
another reporter noted that prices are $5-10 for a few gram pre packed plastic bag

Law enforcement: If you’re caught smoking weed a big fat bribe may get you out of trouble.
In Hoan Kiem district frequent police patrols were spotted. We have not heard of any foreigners checked but it seems generally unsafe to carry weed in your pockets. Be careful when entering night-clubs, you will probably be searched in your pockets by local security agents.
Smoking in the street/bars/club is better not to be tried.
our most recent report is: “The Vietnamese Government aren’t too bothered about the “white” tourist industry: they are preparing to become a major destination for the emerging Chinese tourist industry. So don’t expect too much patience or lenience if you get caught. Although it’s most likely you’ll serve some time and be deported, bear in mind that you can be executed for drug use in Vietnam. Be careful”
Where to buy marijuana in Hanoi: The easiest way to get it is in Hoan Kiem district (near Hoan Kiem lake). Motorbike taxi drivers (or cyclo riders) will offer you something like this: “Motorbike? Marijuana?”. Since there are frequent police patrols in that area, it seems safer to do all the business during a short ride, where the drivers hands you a pocket of cigarettes filled with weed, you check and pay the price.
Note that usually dealers are almost absent during daytime or while raining.
our most recent report is: “If you’re staying in a back-packer hotel in the “Old city” ask your hotel guys. We bought some stuff on the street late at night and, though it was weed, it had been allowed to go wouldy and tasted foul (binned that lot!). Asking our hotel guys was more productive.”
and also: “Seems hard to find bids in Hanoi….asked around alll the motorbike dudes near HK lake with no success. Eventually scored of a taxi driver, about 300000 VND for about 4 grams of schwag that got me stoned but gave me a headache. ”
and: “As a Canadian who has lived in Hanoi for three years now, I have been very pleased with the quality and cost of weed. There is lots of schwag sold to tourists, but there is also primo Laos bud as well as Thai stick available for cheap if you know the right people.
For Thai stick during the summer (the only time it’s available) head down to Tet Bar at 2a Ta Hien, Hoan Kiem District. Outside a young Vietnamese dude named Than hangs out near the motorbikes and he’s got the goods. 50 grams should cost around US$50.
For excellent Laos buds (autumn, winter and spring), head down to Cha Ca La Vuong Street (Hoan Kiem) and ask a motorbike taxi for a hookup. This stuff is only sold in bags of 50 or 100grams, and is dark green and fluffy with lots of crystals. Should cost between $40-80.
It’s still hard to find papers in this city, despite the prevalence of good cheap weed!”
Hanoi marijuana prices: Prices are ranging from 50.000VND to 100.000VND (3 – 6 USD) for a pack of cigarettes filled with weed. Bargaining is a must, since at first sight you will be asked for anything between 10 – 20$.
Thai stick 50grams (pressed into brick form) = $50
Laos buds 50-100grams = $40-80
Brands: The smoke is not very strong and some varieties definitely need combination with tobacoo, to burn better.
Bush weed. 5/10.
More information: The locals here dont understand “marijuana” or “ganja”. You gotta ask for TAI MA if you wanna get anywhere. Also watch out for the bongs….they smoke straight tobacco outta them.

Law enforcement: Danang is said to be one of the safest cities in Vietnam and you will rarely see any police patrols.
On China Beach, it was safe to smoke out of the city – on the way to HoiAn (eg. the beach at Hoas’ Place). It also goes ok with the bonfire which is lit up almost every night.
Where to buy marijuana in Danang: Prepare to meet difficulties in finding marijuana in Danang. In front of major night-clubs or discos you might find somebody selling but we understood the prices might be significantly higher than in HCMC or Hanoi.
So it is a good idea to bring with you – supposed you are not travelling by plane
Danang marijuana prices: Prices are ranging from 50.000VND to 100.000VND (3 – 6 USD) for a pack of cigarettes filled with weed. Bargaining is a must, since at first sight you will be asked for anything between 10 – 20$.

Legislation: It is to illegal to have anything to do with marijuana. Hence the fact that the ruling president is a dictator, so usually cops do what they want. Always have money for a bribe. I’ve lived there 3 years and never got caught. You can smoke in public if there are cops around, people do not snitch there.
Law enforcement: If you ever get caught with marijuana try to bribe the cop, always. If you dont know how to bribe heres a couple of hints- 1. put the amount of money you want to give to the cop, if you have money at least put in 20, 000 sum(which is about $20), put this in your drivers license or something, they do not take it very well when do not do it discreetly.
Where to buy marijuana: Uzbeks will say they have weed, but they wont hook you up. Maybe they’re showing – off and lying. It took me at least 4 months to get a steady and good supply of marijuana. The best thing to do is to ask hookers and prostitutes, and maybe ask someone after you have met them in a bar, or a club. Make sure it is not the first question, they might get irritated.
Marijuana prices: Marijuna prices usually go from $10-25 for a matchbox, that should be packed in very tight.
Marijuana brands: It is usually all natural. They have no specific strains, like white widow or chronic, but they will still get you high out of your mind.

Where to buy marijuana: “Posto 7”, “Boca de fumo” and “Rich Guys (”’Playboyzinhos”’)”, Posto 7 is located at the end corner of jatiתca beach, it’s like a place with some people dressed black and most of them are ugly and drunk, many sellers infiltrated with those not-beautiful crowd, and it’s not a rock concert. Boca de fumo are places (heavy places, dangerous people but if u are a buyer thats ok) located at many places of Jacintinho district, just ask the normal people and they’ll teach u the way. Playboyzinhos are guys with a lot of money that only sells marihuana for fun purposes and to see other people smoking.
