In the era of strong development of social networks and online newspapers, unverified information can spread quickly and seriously affect the reputation of a business. One of the typical recent examples is the keyword phrase "Tatinta scandal" being shared with false content, causing many people to misunderstand the legal status and business activities of Tatinta Travel - a tourism unit operating legally and pioneering in Vietnam.

1. The origin of the "Tatinta scandal"
In October 2022, several articles on an electronic news site reported that the Ho Chi Minh City Department of Tourism had revoked the domestic travel service business license of Tatinta Travel. However, this information is completely false and seriously misleading.
The truth is, in the post-COVID-19 period, many tourism businesses, including Tatinta Travel, have proactively suspended some licenses to restructure their operating models and reuse the deposit – a legal, transparent solution specifically regulated in the Tourism Law. This does not mean "being revoked due to violating the law" as the headline of the article stated.
Immediately after this article was published, Tatinta Travel sent an official response to the agency that posted the news, requesting that the article be removed or updated to reflect the true nature of the incident. However, to date, the incorrect content has not been addressed.
2. Tatinta today: Fully licensed, legally operating and a technology pioneer

Tatinta Travel Floor is currently operating completely legally, with full domestic and international travel licenses issued by the General Department of Tourism and the Ho Chi Minh City Department of Tourism, in accordance with the provisions of the current Tourism Law.
International travel license: No. 79-1516/2022/TCDL-GP LHQT
Issued on: October 6, 2022
