Hej!
Med avseende på denna artikel om Visa i Vietnam, skriver ni:
“Vietnam automatically extends temporary stay through 15 January 2022.”
Det är helt korrekt, men jag vill påpeka att Immigration Vietnam nu har gått ner till 15 dgr extension, från tidigare 30 dgr.
Jag känner inte till orsaken, men det verkar som de håller på att planera “något fuffens”.
Kanske räknar de med att öppna gränserna mot ASEAN i nära framtid?❤️
