When do I need a visa for Vietnam?
Swedish passport holders can normally travel to Vietnam without a visa for stays of up to 45 days. This applies under Vietnam's current rules on visa-free travel for certain nationalities, provided that other entry requirements are met.
If you plan to stay longer than 45 days, enter the country several times, work, study, or travel for a purpose other than a short visit, you will usually need to apply for a visa. Vietnam offers e-Visas that can normally be valid for up to 90 days and can be used for single or multiple entries depending on what is granted.
The final decision on entry is always made by Vietnam's immigration authorities at the border. Travelers may be required to present a return ticket, proof of accommodation, and documents showing the purpose of stay.
Note: The above information applies to Swedish passport holders and certain other nationalities who are subject to Vietnam's rules on visa-free entry. Other nationalities may have different requirements. Some travelers may need to apply for a visa in advance or provide additional documents when applying.
