Lunar New Year public holiday in Vietnam to be held February 8 to 14

That is from the Thursday before the actual Lunar New Year to Wednesday of the week after, as reported by Vietnam Plus. Note that the five public holidays legislated for the Lunar New Year (Tet) in Vietnam are at the discretion of the government and change every year. Also, it’s common for Vietnamese to return to their home towns for the holiday and with only two working days in the second week, it’s likely many will take these two days off as well.
