id slip a 10+ american dollar between your passport when you give it to customs...always worked for me...theyll treat you better and allow you to get out faster! Laughing

DUONG is correct. $10 in your passport and off you go. Very true.

Prep a $10 bill in an easy access pocket. The last part before exiting the airport at the X-ray machinist if he gets fussy on you, inconspicuously slip it to him.

Good luck.

Don't delcare everything you're carrying. OR...do you really need all those equipments going into Vietnam? Travel carefree and light as possible.
