Good news for Japanese citizens traveling to Vietnam! The Vietnamese National Assembly has recently granted approval for the Amended Law revising several articles of the Law on entry, exit, transit and residence of foreigners in Vietnam. According to the amendments, Vietnam would extend the validity of e-visas granted to foreigners entering the country to 90 days from no more than 30 days for single entry or multiple entries.
Currently, Vietnam offers e-visas to citizens of 80 countries and territories, including Japan. This means that from August 15, 2023, Japanese visitors will be able to enjoy an extended maximum stay of 90 days in Vietnam with a valid e-visa. This is a considerable improvement compared to the current limit of 30 days for a single entry.
Moreover, foreign visitors hailing from countries and regions eligible for Vietnam’s unilateral visa waiver program would be able to enjoy an extended maximum stay of 45 days, surpassing the current limit of 15 days. This means that Japanese citizens traveling to Vietnam from August 15, 2023, will be able to stay for 45 days visa-free in the country.
The Vietnamese government has implemented these amendments in order to make it easier for foreign visitors to visit and do business in Vietnam. This is a great opportunity for Japanese travelers to explore Vietnam’s vibrant culture and beautiful landscapes.
So, if you are a Japanese citizen planning to visit Vietnam, apply for an e-visa from August 15, 2023, to enjoy the extended maximum stay of 90 days in the country. Additionally, if you are a Japanese visitor hailing from countries and regions eligible for Vietnam’s unilateral visa waiver program, you can stay for 45 days visa-free in the country from August 15, 2023.
This update will make it easier and more convenient for Japanese citizens to visit Vietnam and enjoy its unique culture and attractions. So, what are you waiting for? Plan your trip to Vietnam and enjoy an extended stay of 90 days with a valid e-visa!
