Tour operator sources and the state-run Vietnam News Agency have said the country will reopen three months earlier than originally planned.

According to specialist operator InsideAsia Tours, initial requirements are for clients over 12 to be fully vaccinated with a vaccine passport and to have had their most recent dose between 14 days and six months prior to departure.

All clients over two must have a negative PCR test 72 hours prior to arrival, stay in an isolation hotel and take an antigen test within the first 24 hours.

In addition, travel insurance with Covid cover of at least $10,000 is set to be compulsory.
