Vietnam has reached an agreement on mutual recognition of vaccine passports with 17 countries, including the US, UK, Japan, Australia, Belarus, India, Cambodia, Philippines, Maldives, Palestine, Turkey, Egypt , Sri Lanka, New Zealand, Singapore, Saint Lucia and South Korea.
Holders of vaccine passports from these countries entering Vietnam and from Vietnam to these countries may apply the same medical measures as those who have been vaccinated in their home country.

Meanwhile, Vietnam has not increased the number of partners that it accepts vaccine passports from, keeping it at 79 countries and territories.
As Vietnam has decided to reopens international tourism on March 15, The Ministry of Foreign affairs works closely with the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism to provide a set of complete measures for the reopening, including the policy for granting visas as directed by the Government.
In general, people will be provided a visa in line with existing regulations such as the Law on Foreigners’ Entry Into, Exit From, Transit Through, and Residence in Vietnam.
Overseas Vietnamese having valid documents can also enter Vietnam under the same law.
