Expansion of visa exemption policy conducive to Vietnam tourism: expert
(Photo: VNA)Hanoi (VNA) – The expansion of the visa exemption policy to cover more countries is good for Vietnam tourism, said Head of the Secretariat of the Tourism Advisory Board (TAB) Hoang Nhan Chinh. Meanwhile, citizens of the countries entitled to the unilateral visa exemption have also had their stay in Vietnam extended to 45 from 15 days. Continuing to expand the visa exemption policy will help the tourism industry diversify the markets, increase the number of international tourists to Vietnam, and encourage them to stay and spend more in Vietnam, he said. Chinh said that since the middle of August 2023, Vietnam has adjusted its visa policy which creates more favourable conditions to attract foreign tourists. However, when applying for an e-visa to Vietnam, tourists still have to spend a lot of time providing personal information and waiting for approval.
