British visa waiver scheme - extension to 2018?

British visa waiver scheme - extension to 2018?
Jun 12, 2017
I am a British citizen travelling through Vietnam in July 2017 (entering from China by train, leaving to Thailand by plane) and staying in Vietnam for less than 15 days. I have been told that the Vietnamese visa waiver scheme for British citizens, originally planned to expire at the end of June 2017, has now been extended by an extra year. However I cannot find this extension confirmed anywhere in writing. Please can you clarify the situation … does the visa waiver end in June 2017 or 2018? Thank you.

Dear Vicky,
Thanks for your question!
Until now, we do not know if the Vietnam Immigration will continue to give out that policy to 2018 or not becasue we have not received any official announcement from them. If they do, you will not need to visa to enter this July. Otherwise, you need visa and you can apply online on our website for visa on arrival at this link: https://www.vietnam-evisa.org/apply-visa.html
Therefore, you should wait until the end of this July to check if the Vietnam Immigration will extend it or not
Best regards,
Nina
