The Government Office
has announced Deputy Prime Minister Vu Duc Dam’s intention to rectify
difficulties facing tourists applying for Vietnamese visa extensions.
The Deputy PM has asked the Ministry of
Public Security to work with the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism
(MoCST) and other relevant bodies to facilitate the renewal of visiting permits
by 15 days for tourists hailing from countries which allow Vietnamese people to
enter without visas.
He has also requested the MoCST to strengthen
its supervision of international tourism agencies in guaranteeing and managing
their tourists in their extended visa period.
The ministry is also to develop a proposal
for a Tourism Development Assistance Fund and another on increasing the number
of countries enjoying Vietnam’s visa exemption which it will submit to the
Prime Minister for approval by June. It will prioritise supporting tourist
markets with high potential and visitors from Vietnam’s strategic partners.
The Ministry of Finance has been requested
to accelerate the updating of relevant legal documents to facilitate this
process.
