Overseas Vietnamese will be
exempt from visas for entering Vietnam,
according to a new Government decision; instead they will be granted
visa-free certificates valid for 5 years. The
certificates will be handed out by either representative agencies in
foreign countries or by the Ministry of Public Security’s Immigration
Department. Vietnamese people that
hold foreign passports and foreigners who are their wives, husbands and
children are allowed to enter Vietnam without visa for less than 90
days. In order to be granted visa exemption certificates at Vietnamese
representative offices abroad, overseas Vietnamese need conditions:
* Foreign-issued permanent residence
certificate (PRC) with the validity of at least six months since the
date of entrance.
* Visa exemption paper (VEP) is granted by Vietnamese appropriate
authorities
Those who expect to stay more than 90
days must apply for visa according to current stipulations before their
entrance. Please visit the official website:

visa exemption certificates. |
