The examination will be implemented in accommodation establishments in tourist destinations, such as Hanoi, HCMC, Ninh Binh, Thanh Hoa, Nghe An, Da Nang, Khanh Hoa, Quang Nam, Binh Thuan, Ba Ria-Vung Tau and Kien Giang.

In addition, the functional units will check and handle accommodation facilities with misleading advertising about their price, quality, and amenities, and the social media marketing for hotels on platforms, such as Agoda.com, Booking.com, Traveloka.com, Facebook, Zalo.

According to VNAT, due to the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic, many accommodation services have chosen to temporarily suspend business activities during this period. They are now facing a labor shortage, a lack of capital sources, and severe degradation.
