Frequently asked questions

Where will experts from companies based in Binh Duong, Dong Nai, Long An be quarantined?

Experts from companies based in these provinces can be quarantined in these provinces or HCMC. Being experienced in doing entry service for experts, Visa Oriental often recommends provincial businesses such as in Binh Duong, Dong Nai, Binh Phuoc… to consider the quarantine option in Ho Chi Minh City for 2 main reasons: 1, the cost of quarantine between 02 options is not significantly different 2, the procedure for quarantine in HCMC is more simpler (takes much less time) and the quarantine facility is more comfortable with more than 40 hotels ranging from 03-05 stars, while Binh Duong currently has only 4 registered quarantine hotels / motels.In addition, if you choose to be quarantined outside HCMC, the cost to rent a private car (in accordance with the regulations of the Ministry of Health) to transport experts from Tan Son Nhat airport to Binh Duong/Dong Nai/Long An is considerably high.

Can relatives of experts, managers or investors enter Vietnam during this Covid-19 pandemic?

Yes, if sufficient valid documents proving the relationship between themselves and the experts are provided:
