Tourism business conditions to be relaxedThe Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism will remove or simplify half of 118 business conditions in the sectors under its management but it said the deposit requirement for tour operators will stay. Providers of karaoke, bar, advertising, sport, lodging and electronic game services can take a sigh of relief as business conditions for them will be slashed. Operators of local tours must deposit VND100 million each, those of inbound tours VND250 million and those of outbound tours VND500 million. Those companies placing a VND500 million deposit can arrange tours in these three segments. The ministry will submit a draft Government decree amending decrees on business conditions to the Government prior to October.
