I do a lot of searches for a lot of different things, but lately I seem to get really outdated results. I’m wondering if there is a way to avoid that, which I’m simply not familiar with maybe? Recent searches were for info about what type visa is required to pass overland from Cambodia to Vietnam. I wasted a ton of time reading bunches of stuff that, while not dated, was three or more years out of date. Aargh! So, is there a way to get only current results for Google searches? Avoiding the misleading stuff altogether. Thank you for your time and any help you can offer me! ---

Try google advanced search (e.g. [https://www.google.co.uk/advanced\_search](https://www.google.co.uk/advanced_search) ), where you can limit your search to recently updated pages ---

You can, of course, simply call their Embassy or write to them by email to get whatever visa information you desire. [Embassy of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam](http://vietnamembassy-usa.org/consular)
