Hello,I had incident that occurred at Tan Son Nhat Airport while I was departing Vietnam. After checking in my luggage, I proceeded to the security checkpoint. While standing in line, I was called to a control room where baggage is scanned.There were no illegal or prohibited items in my luggage. However, the employee asked me for money in order for my luggage to pass through. I found this request unusual and initially declined. She then insisted and suggested that I give 500,000 VND as a tip.In an effort to resolve the situation and continue with my departure, I opened my wallet intending to give a smaller amount (100,000 VND). While I was searching for smaller bills, the employee reached into my wallet and took 500,000 VND without my consent.I would like to know if this is standard practice, as it appeared inappropriate and concerning.

Should have said you would call the consulate to sort it out.
You should complain to others around find some official to complain about this before giving money ! Stange
Not a legal practice…normal for them to try to get money from you. Stand firm and don’t show any $ then you should be fine. Make a scene bc they know they’re doing something wrong and don’t want to get caught.
I find this very hard to believe…
Just say police police. Then they will let you through without any hassle.
Reminds me of that street restaurant guy who charged me 530 000 vnd for a cheap chicken meal that should have cost no more than 80 000…
No way it was a normal practice
Why such issues are left to happen..it will damage the reputation of the country…
You can make a complaint to
We were asked for 500000 when we entered vietnam, we spoke up and said no it’s free for british citizens go and get your boss, he went away came back shoved passport in our hands and just pointed us to go. Bully tactics
