Buying a Motorbike in Vietnam

Does one need a Vietnamese license to buy a motorbike in Vietnam? It seems possible to buy a motorbike w/o one, but we aren't really clear on the logistics of doing so -- can anyone enlighten us?

Hi, you don't need a VN licence to buy a motorbike. I already bought two motorbikes here and the shop owners have never asked for a VN licence. However, I had trouble with one of the shop owners since he was in the opinion that I would never get the motorbike registered here and thus, he refused to give my the red invoice which you need for the registration.

Furthermore, even the police does not care when you register the motorbike whether you are allowed to drive the bike or not. They never asked for the VN licence.
