Do you need a return or onward ticket to enter Vietnam (Nha Trang), and what to do if you're only flying one-way?

Based on 1 discussion with 3 participants · Last activity: 27 days ago

TL;DR

Yes, immigration and airlines sometimes ask for proof of onward or return travel, especially with single-entry visas. If you don't have one, you can buy a cheap ticket on the spot to show, or book a refundable/throwaway ticket in advance.

What the community said
