🐾 Pets on a visa run: can you bring your pet along?

We get this question all the time — and we completely understand why. For many people, a dog or cat is a beloved member of the family 😊

Unfortunately, we can't take passengers with pets on our group visa runs because Vietnamese transport companies don't allow animals on shared transfers. Even if your pet is tiny, super calm, or absolutely adorable 🐹🐱🐶

If you don't have anyone to look after your pet while you're away, there are plenty of options in Vietnam. You can book a pet sitter, leave your furry friend at a pet hotel, or ask friends or family to help while you're on your trip.

But if you don't want to spend even a single day apart from your four-legged companion, we can arrange a private visa run 🚗

We'll pick you up together with your pet, wait at the border, and take you back home afterward. Not a minute apart from your best friend! ❤️

💡 If you're traveling with a dog or cat, we recommend bringing your pet's vaccination passport. It's rarely requested in practice, but it's always better to have it with you.

Wherever you're located in Vietnam, a private visa run can be arranged. Send us a DM for a personalized quote 💬

❗️Overstaying in Vietnam: What You Need to Know If You're in Da Nang

If your permitted stay is coming to an end, it's best not to leave things until the last minute.

Based on our clients' experience, even 1 day of overstay when departing from Da Nang International Airport (DAD) can lead to additional complications.

What may happen:
• You may be sent to the local Immigration Office.
• There, an officer may refer you to a "recommended" agency, where the official fine of 500,000–2,000,000 VND can increase to as much as 8,000,000 VND.

In many cases, travelers also receive a soft blacklist for up to 2 years:
✔️ You can still enter Vietnam under the visa exemption program;
✖️ However, you may no longer be able to obtain a 90-day tourist visa.

Based on what we've seen, this has become common practice in both Da Nang and Nha Trang.

✔️ How to avoid problems
If you already have even a 1-day overstay, the safest option is generally to depart via Ho Chi Minh City or Hanoi.
Based on our experience, for overstays of up to 15 days:
• Hanoi — the fine is usually around 1,250,000 VND;
• Ho Chi Minh City — the fine may be higher, but travelers are generally allowed to depart.
After leaving Vietnam, a new tourist visa is not always approved. However, re-entering under the visa exemption program is usually still possible. If you receive a regular exit stamp, your next 90-day tourist visa is generally approved without any issues.

🚨 If you already have an overstay
• You should resolve the situation through the Immigration Office in the area where you are staying.
• Before booking your flight, it's best to check the required procedure with them, as every case may be different.

✅ If you don't have an overstay
• Double-check the expiry date of your permitted stay in your passport.
• If your stay is coming to an end, plan your visa run in advance to avoid unnecessary expenses and complications.

The cost of making a mistake in Da Nang can be very high.

Vietnam doesn’t let you go that easily 😄

It’s the kind of place where you want to stay longer,
slow down, and actually enjoy life.

And sometimes one visa run turns into… a tradition 🤍

🇻🇳 Here’s an up-to-date guide to the current visa categories and who they are legally intended for.

Starting July 1, 2026, two new visa categories were introduced into Vietnam’s immigration system. However, one thing remains clear: for most people, there are still only two realistically accessible visa options.

🧑🏻‍💼 Diplomatic visas (NG1–NG4) are issued to official delegations, diplomats, and members of international missions.
🕵🏽‍♂️ Work and business visas (LV1, LV2, LS, ĐT1–ĐT4, DN1, DN2, LĐ1, LĐ2) are intended for individuals working with government agencies, foreign lawyers, investors, and individuals employed by Vietnamese companies.
🧑🏼‍🏫 Student and media visas (DH, HN, PV1, PV2) are issued to students and interns, conference participants, and journalists.
👩🏼‍❤️‍👨🏻 Family visas (TT, VR) are available for spouses and children of holders of work and business visas, as well as for people visiting relatives in Vietnam.
🗽 Expert visas (UĐ1, UĐ2) are the much-discussed new visas that came into effect on July 1. They are designed for highly qualified IT professionals, scientists, and their family members. Their purpose is to attract world-class specialists to Vietnam and they are not intended for regular expats or digital nomads. These visas are processed through ministerial approval requests—visa agencies cannot arrange them.
🗺️ Tourist visas (DL, EV/e-visa) are the only visa types that can be obtained without an invitation from an organization.

⚠️ All of the visa categories listed above, except for the e-visa and visa-free entry (for citizens of countries that have visa exemption agreements with Vietnam), require an invitation from an organization, as well as documents confirming employment, investment, or official status. In practice, it is nearly impossible to obtain these visas on your own without an employer, an investment project, or sponsorship from an eligible organization.

📌 Our agency is one of the largest visa agencies in Vietnam. We can help you obtain your e-visa quickly, accurately, and with full support throughout the entire process.

Every visa run is a little journey.
And every trip has its own characters 😄
And you know what?
We love all of them.

Because each of you is part of the trip — and we want it to be smooth and clear for everyone.

So… which one are you? 👀

😌💊 NO medical declaration required: you can relax

So, it turns out there was no need to worry about everyone entering Vietnam having to complete medical declarations starting from July 1. Our predictions have been confirmed.

Vietnam’s Ministry of Health has officially clarified that the new regulations do NOT introduce mandatory medical declarations for everyone entering, leaving, or transiting through the country.

A medical declaration will only be required if the Ministry of Health makes a specific decision to implement one — for example, in the event of a threat posed by a particular infectious disease. The authorities also confirmed that the website tokhaiyte.vn is not being used for this purpose, despite it being widely mentioned in recent days by bloggers and even by the airline VietJet.

So, as of July 1, nothing has changed for ordinary tourists: there are no mandatory medical declarations when entering Vietnam.

We closely monitor all changes in Vietnam’s immigration regulations and will be sure to let you know if any new rules are introduced.

New passport in Vietnam: which document should you use for a visa run?

One of the most common questions after getting a new passport is: which document should you use to leave and re-enter the country if your current entry stamp or visa is in your old passport?

Here are the most common situations.

🟢 Situation #1. You Have Two Valid Passports

For example, you received a new passport from a consulate, while the old one remains valid and contains your Vietnam entry stamp or visa.

If the old passport:
✅ has not been cancelled;
✅ has more than 6 months of validity remaining;
✅ has enough blank pages for additional stamps;
then the entire visa run should be completed using it:
• exit Vietnam;
• enter the neighboring country;
• exit the neighboring country;
• re-enter Vietnam.

In this case, the new passport is not needed for border crossings.

🟡 Situation #2. Your old passport has less than 6 months of validity remaining

In this case, you will need both passports.

The process is as follows:
• exit Vietnam using the document that contains your entry stamp;
• enter the neighboring country using your new passport;
• then use the it to obtain a new visa or re-enter Vietnam.

Important: you cannot leave Vietnam using the new document in this situation, because your entry into Vietnam was recorded in the old one.

⚠️ Exception — China via a land border
If you are traveling to China by land, the "exit with the old one and enter with the new one" approach does not work. Chinese authorities may accept a passport with less than 6 months of validity remaining.

🔴 Situation #3. Your old passport has been cancelled

If the passport you used to enter Vietnam has been cancelled, you will not be able to cross a land border.
You must contact immigration to transfer your entry information (entry stamp) to your new document.
This process usually takes several days and requires payment of a government fee.
In some cases, you may be referred to the airport to resolve the issue, but you should first check with immigration.

🟠 Situation #4. Your old passport has less than 6 months of validity remaining and you have not yet received a new one

In this case, a visa run through Laos or Cambodia is no longer an option.
Possible alternatives include traveling to China via a land border, or flying to China, the Maldives, Kazakhstan, Russia, or other destinations that are willing to accept travelers with this amount of passport validity remaining.

⚠️ Important: returning to Vietnam in this situation is only possible with a pre-approved e-visa.

📄 Does the Type of Visa Matter?

No.
The same rules apply whether you are staying in Vietnam visa-free, holding a 90-day tourist e-visa, a family visa, a student visa, or any other type of stay permit.
These requirements relate to your passport, not the type of visa.

❗️Important to Remember
📌 If your old passport has less than 6 months of validity remaining and you already have a new one, bring both documents with you.
📌 It does not matter whether you received your new (second) passport a week ago or two years ago.
📌 For land-border visa runs, the key document is the one that contains your most recent Vietnam entry stamp.
📌 You cannot leave Vietnam using a different passport if you did not enter Vietnam with it.
📌 If your old passport has been cancelled, the issue must be resolved with immigration before your trip.
