EBikes for Foreigners

Can a foreigner legally purchase and ride an electric bicycle in Vietnam?

Where can I purchase one near or on Phu Quoc?

Thanks.

My lovely Vietnamese wife is telling me you can purchase anything under 50 cc ... and any electric bike/moped you want.

Thanks to you and your wife for the information.  Cheers.

No problem. I'm just glad I could help. Good luck with your move.

Except for a few spots on the road that loops around the mountain range on the north side of the island, all the roads seem to be below 25 meter elevation.  That would seem ideal for electric bikes.  A 50cc motorbike could go anywhere easily, as well as take an occasional ferry trip to the mainland parts of Kien Giang province.
