The Covid-19 vaccine passport is a form of documentation (likely digital) proving that you have been vaccinated against Covid-19. It is, in some countries, known as vaccine pass or “green pass”, digital green pass”.
The idea behind a vaccine passport is that it would allow a person to resume activities that are now restricted due to Covid-19 outbreak, including freer travel, entering a restaurant, cinema, gym or attending concerts, sporting events, theater performances and other events that would put you in close proximity with a lot of other people.
Due to Covid-19, the Covid vaccine passport may become a required item to enter any country, in addition to valid physical passport and visa. As such, it is also referred to as “vaccine visa”.
Since the start of Covid-19 outbreak, Vietnam remains its name as one of the best countries dealing with coronavirus. The number of confirmed Covid-19 cases remains low after its 02 waves of the pandemic. The current new Covid cases are mainly the entrants from foreign countries.
In addition, Vietnam has made the best efforts to minimize the number of deaths caused by Coronavirus.
When Vietnam opens its borders to tourists is on top concern by various travelers around the world. Whether it comes with the instruction of Covid-19 vaccine passport? No one has the answer at the moment.
At the moment, Vietnam only allows foreign experts, their spouse/children and Vietnamese citizens to enter Vietnam if they have a Vietnam entry permit. Those entrants are all subject to Covid test upon arrival and then 14-day quarantine at a designated facility.
