Thailand visa requirements for Vietnamese citizens

Vietnamese citizens do not need a visa to travel to Thailand for short-term tourism. Although a visa is not required, all Vietnamese travelers must complete the Thailand Digital Arrival Card (TDAC) before departure. The TDAC is a mandatory digital entry form, not a visa, and must be submitted within 3 days before arrival when entering Thailand by air, land, or sea.

iVisa offers one Thailand entry document for Vietnamese travelers:

Thailand Digital Arrival Card (TDAC): A mandatory digital immigration form required for Vietnamese citizens traveling to Thailand visa-free. It supports a stay of up to 60 days under Thailand visa exemption rules.

General Thailand entry requirements for Vietnamese travelers are:
Vietnamese passport valid for at least six months
Completed Thailand Digital Arrival Card
Return or onward ticket
Proof of accommodation
Evidence of sufficient funds
Other supporting documents, depending on purpose or situation

Thailand visa FAQs

What Vietnamese travelers commonly ask about Thailand visas

Do Vietnamese citizens need a visa for Thailand?

No. Vietnamese citizens can enter Thailand visa-free for short-term tourism under the Thailand visa exemption program. A visa is not required for stays of up to 60 days, but travelers must still meet entry requirements and complete the Thailand Digital Arrival Card before travel.

What is the processing time of a Thailand visa of entry document for Vietnamese applicants?

There is no visa processing time for visa-exempt travel. However, the Thailand Digital Arrival Card must be submitted online before travel and is usually processed quickly. Travelers should complete it at least one day before departure to avoid delays.

How long can Vietnamese nationals stay in Thailand?

Vietnamese nationals can stay in Thailand for up to 60 days under the visa exemption scheme. The exact length of stay is confirmed by Thai immigration officers on arrival and shown on the entry record.

What is the difference between a visa exemption and the Thailand Digital Arrival Card?

A visa exemption allows Vietnamese passport holders to enter Thailand for short stays without a visa. The Thailand Digital Arrival Card is a mandatory immigration form that collects personal, travel, and customs information and must be completed even when traveling visa-free.

Can Vietnamese citizens extend their stay in Thailand?

Yes. Visa-exempt travelers can usually apply for a one-time extension of up to 30 additional days at a local Thai immigration office before their permitted stay expires.

Do Vietnamese travelers need the Thailand Digital Arrival Card when transiting?

Yes. If you leave the airport during transit, you may be required to complete the Thailand Digital Arrival Card. Airside-only transit may not require it, depending on circumstances.

Can Vietnamese citizens work or study in Thailand without a visa?

No. Visa-free entry does not allow work, study, or long-term stays. Travelers planning to work, study, or stay long-term must apply for the appropriate visa in advance.
