Do I Need a Visa for My Children to Enter Vietnam?

Planning a trip to Vietnam with children involves considering visa requirements. The good news is that in many cases, children don’t need a visa to enter Vietnam, but it’s crucial to understand the rules to avoid any surprises.

Visa Exemption for Children

Less than 15 days: If your child is a French citizen, they don’t need a visa for a stay of up to 15 days, including the days of arrival and departure. This exemption is valid until March 14, 2025.
Eligible nationalities: Besides France, many countries benefit from this visa exemption for short stays. Check the list on your country’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs website.

When a Visa Is Required

Stay longer than 15 days: If your stay in Vietnam exceeds 15 days, your child will need to obtain a visa.
Non-exempt nationalities: If your child holds a nationality not on the list of visa-exempt countries, they will need a visa regardless of the length of their stay.

Types of Visas for Children ?

Visa on arrival: This can be obtained upon arrival in Vietnam, but it’s best to apply online in advance to save time.
E-visa: The e-visa is a convenient option for stays of less than 90 days. It can be applied for online and is usually issued quickly.

Documents Required for the Visa (if applicable) ?

Passport: Your child’s passport must be valid for at least 6 months after the date of entry into Vietnam.
Passport photos: Recent passport photos of your child.
Visa application form: Completed and signed.
Other documents: Depending on the type of visa and your situation, other documents may be required (return air ticket, proof of accommodation, etc.).

Plan ahead: If you need a visa, apply well in advance to avoid any stress.
Travel with peace of mind: Once the visa formalities are settled, you can fully enjoy your family trip to Vietnam!
