Is an express immigration service worth booking on arrival at Phu Quoc International Airport?

From messages by 5 participants in 2 sources · Last activity: 18 days ago

TL;DR

Immigration queues on arrival in Vietnam vary a lot: in September 2026 participants wrote that some travelers clear them quickly while others wait up to three hours. With a baby, in their experience, officers escort you through outside the main queue, so you may not need to buy an express service for the child's sake. Filling in the required form in advance also saves time — those who did not had to complete it at the airport after landing.

Travelers flying with a baby were told in September 2026 that with a nine-month-old, officers at immigration will let you through and escort you outside the main queue themselves. Based on this experience, there is no need to buy an express service just because of the baby.

Asked by a package-tour traveler whether an express immigration service is worth buying, participants replied in September 2026 that it comes down to luck: some people clear immigration quickly on their own, while others queue for three hours. If the queue matters a lot to you, an express service can save time, but there is no telling in advance whether the queue will be long.
