Vietnam is holding democratic bonds with more than 170 nations across the globe but out of them only 17 nations have the privilege of a visa free stay. One such country is Denmark. Vietnam Visa Policy has exempted the people of Denmark from obtaining a visa for a travel of less than or equal to 15 days. This exemption is applicable for any kind of trips, be it business or tourism. If the citizen needs to extend the stay for more than 15 days, then a valid visa will be essential. In addition to the 15-day exemption, few other exemptions have been granted to the Denmark people under different situations. Get in touch with the embassy to know about the exemption rules.
The Vietnamese government waived 15 days visa requirements for travelers coming from certain countries, including Denmark. However, Vietnam introduced a new rule requiring those travelers to have a visa upon re-entry to the country within 30 days of their last departure. The government's intent is to control foreigners who come and go repeatedly within a short period of time in an attempt to work in Vietnam illegally.
Do Denmark citizens need visa for entering Vietnam or not?
No, fortunately the citizens of Denmark do not need any kind of visa for going on short trips to Vietnam – 15 days. The Vietnam Visa Policy has exempted 17 nations from getting any kind of visa and Denmark is one of them. The citizens of Denmark have been granted a visa exemption, provided, the trip lasts for less than or equal to 15 days. If the citizen needs to extend the trip beyond the exempted duration then a valid visa will be required. In addition to this exemption, some of the criteria for exemptions are as follows:
1) The diplomatic and official passport holders in Denmark get a visa free stay of not just 15 days but up to 90 days. If the diplomat official wishes to stay for more than this in Vietnam then he will need a valid visa.
2) The citizens of Denmark who are children or spouses of the Vietnamese citizens have been given a visa exemption of not just 15 days but up to 5 years provided, they present to the authorities all the relevant documents successfully, to state their relationship.
