The Ministry of Public Security is also assigned to front over and coordinate with relevant agencies to study and expand the unilateral visa exemption list:
- Pilot visa exemption for short-term periods (6 months to 12 months) for tourists from a number of large-scale, high-spending markets
- Piloting long-term, multiple-entry visas (12 months to 36 months) to attract market segments of high-end tourists and retirees with high spending ability from a number of target markets such as Europe, Northeast Asia, North America, India and some countries in the Middle East.
Thanks to the easy on entry procedures, Vietnam can compete with Thailand in term of priority of foreign travellers. Faciliating on Visa policies and Entry procedures will be a hit to promote and develop Vietnam tourism, make a chance for Vietnam to welcome more and more travellers.
This proposal would be expected to apply in the end of this year 2024.
