Quatrième vague
(27 April – now)	11380	For the first time, Vietnam recorded the SARS-CoV-2 virus variant with the strongest infection rate in the world from India. The number of infections is increasing rapidly and the situation is complicated in industrial zones. In recent days, the number of cases is increasing at an alarming rate. Vietnam is facing more than 50,000 high-risk positive test samples.

On 24 Feb 2021, the first batch of 117,600 doses of Oxford/AstraZeneca’s Covid-19 vaccine arrived in HCMC’s Tan Son Nhat Airport.

In January 2021, in response to COVID-19 outbreak in Hai Duong, two field hospitals with a combined capacity of 600 beds have been set up in northern Hai Duong province within 24 hours. The first one was built at the medical centre of Chi Linh city, and staffed by 45 doctors and about 70 nurses who can provide treatment for 200 patients. The second one converted from the Hai Duong Medical Technical University with 210 beds.

The third wave of infections began on 28 January 2021, when Vietnam recorded an additional 84 community transmission cases within a single day in Hai Duong and Quang Ninh provinces. Most of these are related to a single Hai Duong migrant worker, who was diagnosed with the UK coronavirus variant by Japanese authorities after arriving in Osaka on 17 January. Initially, the government only quarantine the areas directly related to the infected people to limit the economic impact. But after half a month the number of cases still showed no signs of stopping, so on 15 February, entire province of Hai Duong was locked down for 15 days while Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City stopped all entertainment activities.

This information will be updated with further notice from Vietnam Immigration Department.

Dear Bingpeng Zhou,

Merci de nous contacter.

This is to inform that due to SARS-CoV-2 spread out, Vietnam temporarily suspends issuing visas for all nationalities within 30 days from 18 March 2020. With your provided information, kindly check with your airlines agent if your luggage will be automatically transferred from one flight to another so you do not need to go out of the isolated area (just stay in Transit Area), you would not need a visa for your provided trip’s information.

However, if you need to go out of the Immigration gate (isolated area) either to reach the baggage claim belt yourself or to go out of the airport, you would need to have a visa to pass the Immigration checking booth.

Please double check with your airlines about the information above and confirm us which situation you are in.

Cher Mohamed

Merci pour ton e-mail.

This is would like to inform that we are a travel agency who support customer to get visa on arrival.
In order to apply visa to Vietnam, you can pick up visa at Vietnam Embassy nearest your place. After receiving your request we will process your application but note with Vietnam Immigration Department that you will pick up the visa at Vietnam Embassy/Consulate abroad. The Dept will fax a letter to that Embassy, we will also send you the copy of that faxed version via email. You will bring this copy to the Embassy chosen then they will grant you visa. At this point, you will still have to pay for the official visa, but we are not sure about this fee because each Embassy/Consulate has its own policy. Kindly contact the Vietnam Embassy to make sure that your visa result is available in their system.

En attendant, si vous avez des questions, n'hésitez pas à nous contacter.

I am writing to clarify to you some points that:

– We – Vietnam Visa only offer the Visa-on-arrival (VOA) is briefly a process of obtaining the pre-approved visa letter through our company to check-in at the departure airport and pick up the actual visa stamp at an international airport in Vietnam upon arrival.
In order to apply for a visa approval letter please apply here OR kindly send us the scan/photo of your passport information page then provide us the earliest expected arrival date and type of visa (01 or 03 months, single or multiple entries) so that we can send back confirmation email and payment link accordingly.

Normally, it takes up to 02 working days to process and send back your visa approval letter which allows you to board on your flight. Up on arrival at any Vietnam International Airport, you can follow the instruction in our email to complete the landing visa procedure to get official Vietnam visa stamp into your passport.

Nous espérons que les informations ci-dessus vous seront utiles et attendrons de vos nouvelles bientôt.

Merci pour ton e-mail.
This is to inform that the type of visa we support customers to obtain is visa on arrival, which means you will receive a visa approval letter by email then print the letter out, show it at depart airport to board on flight to Vietnam. Upon arrival at Vietnam airport, you will be granted official visa

In order to apply e-visa that there is only ONE place to get an E-Visa for Vietnam: Direct from the Vietnamese Immigration Department. Please note that it will take at least 3 working day to issue the visa. More importantly, Vietnam Visa Department only issue 1 month single entry visa.

Here is the website: https://evisa.xuatnhapcanh.gov.vn/web/guest/home

Additionally, the visa result we send to customer is signed and stamped by the Viet Nam Immigration Department, not our product. Therefore, the visa you get at the Embassy or evisa and from Immigration Department (through us) is same effective.
