Hotel, Airbnb and temporary residence registration

What if I changed hotels several times?

Direct answer

Hotels and many private hosts are expected to complete temporary-residence declarations for foreign guests. A booking confirmation is evidence of stay—not automatically the official declaration itself. This page answers: “What if I changed hotels several times?”

Important qualification

Never treat an Airbnb reservation alone as proof that police/immigration registration was completed. Never claim: Every Airbnb reservation automatically constitutes official temporary residence registration. Clearly state VietExit is independent and does not issue visas, fines, exit permissions or government decisions.

What can change this

Hotel vs Airbnb vs friend/partner stays, late or missing registration, and whether you can obtain host confirmation can affect case preparation.

Safe next step

Ask hosts for registration proof, keep invoices and booking history, and record addresses in your Immigration Report as accurately as possible.

Verify with humans / official channels

Local police/immigration administration under Ministry of Public Security frameworks handle temporary-residence procedures; verify current requirements via official public-service materials.
