Great News for French Travelers!
If you’re planning a trip to Vietnam, we have some exciting news for you. The Vietnamese National Assembly recently approved amendments to the Law of Foreigners’ Entry into, Exit from, Transit through, and Residence in Vietnam. As a result, citizens of France will be exempted from obtaining a visa for up to 45 days starting from August 15, 2023. This extended visa exemption period is a significant improvement, as it surpasses the previous limit of 15 days.
Extended Visa Exemption Period
With the new regulations in place, French travelers can now explore the beauty and diversity of Vietnam for an extended period of time without the hassle of obtaining a visa. Whether you’re planning to visit the bustling city of Hanoi, explore the stunning landscapes of Ha Long Bay, or immerse yourself in the vibrant culture of Ho Chi Minh City, you can now do so for up to 45 days visa-free.
How to Stay Longer in Vietnam?
If you wish to extend your stay beyond the 45-day visa exemption period, fret not! Vietnam has also introduced an e-visa system that allows citizens of France, among other eligible countries, to apply for a 90-day e-visa. This means that you can enjoy an extra 45 days in Vietnam, making your total stay up to 90 days.





The Benefits of E-Visa
The e-visa system offers a convenient and streamlined process for obtaining a visa. It eliminates the need to visit an embassy or consulate, as the entire application process can be completed online. The e-visa is valid for both single and multiple entries, allowing you the flexibility to enter and exit Vietnam multiple times within the 90-day validity period.
How to Apply for an E-Visa?
Applying for an e-visa is quick and straightforward. Simply visit the official website of the Vietnam Immigration Department, complete the online application form, and submit the required documents. The processing time is typically around three working days, after which you will receive your e-visa via email. It’s important to note that you should apply for the e-visa at least seven days before your intended arrival in Vietnam.
