VIETNAM VISA RUN GUIDELINES
A visa run for Vietnam is a trip that you need to take to remain in Vietnam as your Vietnam visa is soon to expire, and you cannot extend it, or its extension is costly. So, you have to leave Vietnam, get to a neighboring country (Laos, Cambodia, Thailand, or China), and then turn back around and re-enter Vietnam with a new visa.
There are two ways to do your visa run in Vietnam, namely:
1. Do the visa run via Vietnam international airports; and
2. Do the visa run via land borders.
Visa Run Tips:
- Cheapest visa runs from Hanoi: Those in Hanoi often choose to do a visa run via Noi Bai Airport to Singapore, Thailand, or Cambodia.
- Cheapest visa runs from Saigon (Ho Chi Minh city): Those in Saigon and southern provinces of Vietnam often choose to do Moc Bai visa run which is considered the cheapest, fastest, and most convenient way to do a visa run from HCMC.
