Vietnam Airlines warmly welcomes its passengers to Vietnam!

Generally, if passengers are non-nationals (foreigners), they are required to have a visa to enter Vietnam. In case of coming from a country with visa waiver status, passengers are allowed to have a stay duration of 15 days from the entry date (including the entry date and the next 14 days of stay).

To make your trip more convenient, we would like to provide the visa and immigration information application by the International Air Transport Association (IATA).
