Please continuously monitor and update the situation from the Vietnamese government agency, Embassy, Consulate to confirm any changes before departure.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n The Covid-19 pandemic has come and changed the lives of people around the world in ways we never thought possible. But thanks to the Covid-19 vaccination, we have been gradually controlling the situation. The question is: am I allowed to travel to Vietnam, when can we travel to Vietnam in 2022? The article below will answer the question for you specifically.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Since March 2020 until further notice, Vietnam has temporarily suspended usual visa waivers, visa issuance for all foreigners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Only Vietnamese nationals, diplomats on official business, experts, foreign investors, and certain high-skilled workers are allowed to enter Vietnam at this time. These will be processed case by case. These applications have to be led by Vietnamese employers who are required to work directly through provincial government offices. These requirements and procedures are also different from province to province. The quarantine costs, both in governmental quarantine centres and designated hotels, must be paid by the ones who arrive and their employers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Foreigners entering Vietnam for less than 14 days for business purposes are exempt from concentrated isolation, but must comply with epidemic prevention and control regulations including staying in an isolated place to ensure isolation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n From January 1, 2022, Vietnam approved the resumption of international commercial flights to and from Vietnam with 9 destinations, including San Francisco or Los Angeles, Bangkok, Singapore, Phnompenh, Beijing, Phnom Penh, Guangzhou, Tokyo, and Taipei. However, so far, only 5 international routes have been officially resumed, including the US, Taiwan, Japan, Singapore, and Cambodia. A number of airline websites allow booking online from Vietnam, but check carefully in advance to see if these flights are warranted to fly or not and if they are passenger flights or not. In fact, commercial flights and transit arrangements are still prone to delays, changes and cancellations with very little notice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Fully vaccinated passengers entering Vietnam:<\/strong> will have to be isolated for 3 days at a designated facility, and conduct PCR tests on day 1 and day 3. If the result is positive, you will be quarantined consistent with the rules of Government. If negative, you continue to monitor health until the end of 14 days from the date of entry while enjoying your destination. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Passengers without proof of full vaccination entering Vietnam:<\/strong> will need to execute self-isolation for 7 days at a designated facility and conduct PCR tests on day 1 and day 7. If the result is positive, you will be quarantined consistent with the rules of Government. If negative, you continue to monitor health until the end of 14 days from the date of entry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Those entering the country under 18 years of age, people aged 65 or older, pregnant women, and people having underlying medical conditions (but not being monitored or treated at medical facilities) are isolated with their parents\/personal care givers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Those allowed to enter Vietnam for tourism purposes will have to show a certificate of full vaccination (vaccine passport) or a certificate of recovery from Covid-19 issued by a competent authority. The last vaccine dose must be administered no less than 14 days before departure to Vietnam and no later than 12 months from the date of entry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Borders with China, Cambodia and Laos are currently closed. Foreigners have not yet been allowed to enter Vietnam by land, except for returning Vietnamese nationals, foreigners who obtain Vietnam entry permits from the Immigration Department and visa-exemption holders (including: overseas Vietnameses (no matter Vietnam passport is still available or not) and their spouses\/children and spouses\/children of Vietnameses). Import and export of goods are processing as usual.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Currently, transit in Vietnam is still not allowed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Foreigners coming to Vietnam must provide information about their recent travel history.<\/p>\n\n\n\nI.
