Indian businessmen who wish to visit Vietnam during this Covid-19 pandemic can now apply for a business visa. Take note that the only foreign visitors that the Vietnamese authorities will allow are those who are visiting for “essential purposes”, such as foreign businessmen, investors, business managers, and skilled workers. Foreigners who want to visit for tourism purposes are still not allowed to enter. Vietnam would like to limit the entry of foreigners since the Covid-19 virus is still spreading very fast in several countries around the world.
Aside from applying for the business visa, there are several other requirements that every Indian visitor needs to comply with when visiting Vietnam during this time.
In order for the business visa to be processed, an Indian foreign visitor to Vietnam must first have a Vietnam-based sponsor company. The sponsor company can then follow the following procedures for the application of the business visa to Vietnam:
When travelling to Vietnam these days, you are required to abide by the restrictions and quarantine requirements. Since the Covid-19 virus is still spreading rapidly, Vietnam does not want to take any chances. So in order to make sure that all foreign visitors do not carry the virus, Vietnam has implemented the following travel requirements.
When you arrive at the airport in Vietnam, you will be evaluated for any symptoms of the Covid-19 virus. Anyone who has fever, cough, and other symptoms will be isolated immediately and will be tested for Covid-19. If the result returns positive, the foreign visitor must be taken to the hospital to be treated. But if the result is negative, then they can proceed to their waiting vehicle.
While undergoing quarantine at the hotel, all foreign visitors should adhere to the strict safety measures imposed by the local health authorities to prevent the spread of the Covid-19 virus. They should avoid direct contact with any person outside of their hotel room. And if they start developing symptoms of the virus, they should call the health authorities right away. While isolating, the visitor will be tested twice. If both tests are negative, the visitor can end the quarantine.
Traveling to Vietnam during this Covid-19 pandemic is a bit complicated. Several requirements are needed especially a business visa. And before you can be given a visa, you must have a sponsor company. If you do not have a sponsor company but you need to go to Vietnam for some important reasons, you can ask for help from a local agency for assistance. The agency will send a letter to the Local People’s Committee to ask for a travel permit that will be used for the application for your business visa.
