With increasingly open visa policies, a convenient e-visa system, and an extensive international flight network, travelling to Da Nang is now easier than ever.
Vietnam is becoming an increasingly accessible and attractive destination for international visitors thanks to expanded and simplified visa policies. In particular, Resolution No. 229/NQ-CP dated 08 August 2025 on visa exemption from 15 August 2025 to 14 August 2028 under the Tourism Development Stimulus Program has increased the total number of countries eligible for Vietnam’s unilateral visa exemption policy to 24. In addition, Resolution No. 127/NQ-CP dated 14 August 2023 of the Government on the issuance of electronic visas to citizens of countries and territories, along with the list of international border gates allowing foreigners to enter and exit Vietnam using e-visas, continues to facilitate international travel.
These policies make it easier for visitors to plan their trips, extend their stays, explore a wider range of experiences, and fully enjoy their journey throughout Vietnam.
