4. Do I need a visa?
Vietnam
Visitors from certain countries might enter Vietnam visa-free for a certain number of days.
From 15 March 2022 Vietnam has reintroduced visa waivers for the nationals of some countries including the UK, Germany, Spain, France, Norway, Sweden, South Korea, Finland, Japan, Italy & Denmark., Russia, Belarus (under 15 days); Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia, Cambodia, Laos (under 30 days); Philippines (under 21 days) and Myanmar & Brunei (under 14 days).
If you are not passport holder of the above mentioned countries or if you wish to stay longer than what is allowed then you would need to apply for Vietnam e-visa
E-visa costs 25 USD and generally takes 3 days. You will receive your code by email to print your visa. You can enter Vietnam on an e-Visa at any of the country's eight international airports, including Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City and Danang, as well as 14 land crossings and seven seaports.
5. What are Covid requirements in Vietnam?
From 15 May 2022 you no longer need to take a COVID-19 test before travelling to Vietnam.
You also don’t need to provide proof of your vaccination status for entry to Vietnam.
6. Do I need to take cash and can I use my debit/credit card in Vietnam?
We recommend you take some USD in cash which you can change to Dong (at your hotel or tourist centres) upon arrival.
If you don't want to take cash you can consider getting prepaid 'travel money card' which is usually safer and cheaper than using your debit/credit card to withdraw money at ATMs in Vietnam.
ATMs are widely available in Vietnam, especially in big cities like Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City & Danang. If you travel to more rural areas consider taking some cash with you.
