TL;DR

Travelers report that a tourist-card/QR procedure was introduced in July 2026 but was only operating on arrival in Ho Chi Minh City at the time discussed. Check the latest rules before flying to Nha Trang, as QR requirements may be extended to any Vietnamese airport and completing it on arrival can take about an hour.

What the community said
