The traditional ways to say goodbye in Vietnamese are "hẹn gặp lại" ("plan to meet again"), "tạm biệt" (literally "temporary separation"), or very rarely "vĩnh biệt" (goodbye forever, literally "permanent separation"). These are now considered to be a little formal among young urban Vietnamese, who now say "mai gặp" ("meet tomorrow") which is roughly equivalent to saying "see you later" or just "later" in English.
