Summary of Current Situation:

After just less than 2 years of being closed to inbound tourism, Vietnam has just announced plans to reopen for inbound tourism starting 15 March, 2022. Although there are still some details to be sorted out such as what ‘new normal’ visa policies will look like and what hotel transport options will be available, ,this is certainly a positive development that we expect will be gaining significant momentum in the weeks ahead. Below is a summary of the details as they are currently. We will continue updating this page as details come in, and please do feel free to reach out to us with any questions at [email protected].
