Hello folks. I have a few questions about live in Vietnam. Are foreigners subject to any taxes on live cash Poker?

When going back to the airport, can you carry a ton of money? What is the limit on money you can carry with you going back home? Are you going to be subject to tax at the airport from Poker winnings at a cash game?

What is the take generally speaking at cash games in Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi?

That thread is from 2016. Vietnam is not third world anymore.

You might get faster/better response if you post to other topics -> travel subforum.

In Vietnam earnings at casinos are tax free.
Customs declaration limit is 5k usd. Most countries around the world it's 10k usd, but Vietnam has lower limit.

There are poker rooms in Hanoi and Saigon, but they are supposed to only run tournaments. Because cash games outside casinos are considered illegal gambling. So any cash game you might find there won't be reporting/paying tax obviously.
