VIETNAM
Vietnam does NOT require proof of vaccination or quarantine under COVID-19. All border gates in Vietnam DO NOT require international tourists to take the COVID-19 test, a recovery certificate, or a Medical Declaration for COVID-19 before entering the country. For COVID-19 treatment, travel medical insurance should have a liability of $10,000 or more.
Health and safety precautions for travelers
- Any travelers who exhibit symptoms of Covid-19 − fever, cough, and difficulty breathing − should immediately call Vietnam’s health hotline: 1900 3228. .

- Take preventive action such as wearing a mask or cleaning their hands with disinfectant solutions.
A small number of rural areas in Vietnam may be infected with malaria. Make sure you are well-prepared for a first-aid kit by consulting your doctor. We recommend the following vaccinations: polio, tetanus, yellow fever, typhoid, Japanese encephalitis. You should have solutions for stomachaches, headaches, and such in your personal kit. Make sure wounds are disinfected and bandaged to prevent infection. If you have been bitten by an animal, seek medical attention. Make sure you bring plenty of sunscreen with you, as the sun shines over half of the day throughout the country.
