 Vietnam Visa On Arrival Is Now Available In Phu Quoc Island
It is now possible to obtain your Vietnam Visa at the Phu Quoc International Airport upon arrival (VOA). This is applicable to those who plan on visiting Phu Quoc Island by airplane with direct flight from outside Vietnam to Phu Quoc airport, travel in Phu Quoc and then want to visit other parts of Vietnam.
Phu Quoc’s current classification as a “Special Economic Zone” allows international travelers to stay on the island Visa-Free for up to 30 days (Visa fee to Phu Quoc island of Vietnam) and it is the only region in Vietnam that has a visa exemption policy in place, however those who arrive on the island under this exemption will not (*legally) be allowed to visit other parts of Vietnam without having the appropriate Visa.
As of March 2015 the Phu Quoc International Airport is now setup to process Vietnam Visa on arrival.
