Hello, everybody.
Does anyone know anything about Vietnamese family books?
My wife has information about it from her family, but in the past information from her family has not always proven to be correct.
That's why I'm asking here.
My wife is still registered in her parents' family book (Long An).
She now wants to have herself deleted and entered in her own family book.
But she can apparently only apply for an own family book if our house is finished (Long An).
So in Vietnam you would only get a family book if you own your own land with a house and therefore have a permanent address. Is that really true?
Does a newborn child have to be registered in the family book to receive a birth certificate and to becomes automatically a Vietnamese citizen?
The problem is that the child is born before we have our own family book.
If an entry in the family book were necessary, our future child would probably have to be entered temporarily in the family book of my wife's parents.
Will I also be entered in the new family book as a foreigner (with TRC)?
Thank you in advance.
Andy
