Can short-term visitors open a Vietnamese bank account and transfer money into it in Da Lat?

One suggested option is to convert funds through cryptocurrency and withdraw from an exchange to a Vietnamese bank account after arriving in Vietnam.

Another suggestion is to give cash or US dollars to a local resident in exchange for a transfer of the equivalent amount to a Vietnamese account. This informal arrangement requires extra caution.

Cash deposit through a bank was also mentioned as a more conventional option. However, the discussion does not confirm whether Vietcombank or another bank opens accounts for tourists on a 45-day entry stamp.
